$\huge{ \boxed{ \underline{ \mathfrak{ \dag{Answer:-}}}}}$

Assume present age of sahil be x

Present age of his mother will be 3x

after 5 years

sahil age=x+5

his mothers age =3x+5.

According to question

(x+5)+(3x+5)=66

4x+10=66

4x=56

x=14

sahil present age=14 years

his mother present age= 42 years.
