Let Rahul's age be = 7x
And let sahil's age be = 5x
If their sum of ages is 60.
then ; 7x+ 5x ÷ 60 = present age of Rahul and sahil.
So 7x+ 5x is 12x
And then divide 60 by 12x
so , x = 60/ 12 = 5
Now , to find present ages:-
Present age of Rahul = 5 × 5 = 25
present age of sahil = 5 × 7 = 35
And if we plus both we get 60.
so answer is correct.
present age of Rahul = 25 years
present age of Sahil = 35 years.
