Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Sahil be x

And his mother's be y

First condition:

y=7x ---- (1)

Second condition:

(Two years ago)

y-2=13(x-2) ----(2)

Solving (2),

Y-2=13x-26

24=13x-y

24=13x-7x (from (1))

24=6x

4=x

So, Sahil's present age = 4 years

His mother's present age= 7 × 4

= 28years
