Their present age are :

  • The present age of Ram = 35 years.
  • The present age of Shivam = 25 years.

Given :

  • The ratio of the present age of Ram and Shivam = 7 : 5.
  • After ten years, their ages will be in the ratio = 9 : 7.

To Find :

  • The present age of Ram and Shivam.

Solution :

Let,

The present age of Ram be 7x.

The present age of Shivam be 5x.

After ten years,

The age of Ram = 7x + 10

The age of Shivam = 5x + 10

The age of Ram and Shivam is in the ratio,

: \implies  \rm 9 \ratio7 = \dfrac{9}{7}

 :  \implies \rm  \dfrac{7x + 10}{5x + 10}  =  \dfrac{9}{7}  \\  \\  :  \implies \rm  7(7x + 10) = 9(5x + 10) \\  \\  :  \implies \rm 49x + 70 = 45x + 90  \\  \\  :  \implies \rm  49x - 45x = 90 - 70 \\  \\  :  \implies \rm  4x = 20 \\  \\  :  \implies \rm  x =  \dfrac{20}{4}  \\  \\  :  \implies \rm  x = 5 \\  \\  \:  \rm \therefore \: \:   x = 5

So the present age of Ram and Shivam :

★ The present age of Ram = 7x = 7 ( 5 ) = 35 years.

★ The present age of Shivam = 5x = 5 ( 5 ) = 25 years.

Hence,

The present age of Ram and Shivam is 35 years and 25 years.
