Answer:

present age of Pratap = 24

present age of Akhilesh = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

since ratio of age of Pratap and akhilesh is 6:7

therefore

present age of Pratap is 6x

and present age of akhilesh is 7x

After 6 years :

age of Pratap will be 6x + 6

age of akhilesh will be 7x + 6

according to question

(6x+6) / (7x+6) = 15/17

17(6x+6) = 15(7x+6)

102x + 102= 105x + 90

102x - 105x = 90 - 102

-3x= - 12

x= 4

so present age of Pratap = 6*4=24

and present age of akhilesh = 7*4= 28
