Answer:
Present age of Sahil = 14 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age of Sahil = 14 years
Explanation:
Let present age of Sahil = x year
present age of Sahil’s mother = 3x years
After 5 years
Age of Sahil = (x + 5) year
Age of Sahil’s mother (3x + 5)
⇒ (x + 5) + (3x + 5) = 66
⇒ x + 3x + 5 + 5 = 66
⇒ 4x + 10 = 66
⇒ 4x = 66 - 10
⇒ x = 56 / 4
⇒ x = 14
Present age of Sahil = 14 years
Present age of Sahil’s mother = 3x years
3x = 3 × 14 = 42 years
