Answers
Given
Present age of Sahil's Mother = There times the present age of Sahil
After 5 Years later the sum of their ages is 66 years
To Find
Present age of Sahil
Solution
☯ Assuming the present age of Sahil as x and the present age of his mother as 3x
After 5 Years
Age of Sahil = x+5
Age of his Mother = 3x+5
✭ According to the Question :
→ (x+5) + (3x+5) = 66
→ x + 5 + 3x + 5 = 66
→ 4x + 10 = 66
→ 4x = 66-10
→ 4x = 56
→ x = 56/4
→ x = 14
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Therefore,
● Present age of Sahil = x = 14 years
● Present age of his mother = 3x = 3×14 = 42 years
∴ Present age of Sahil is 14 years
