Let Sakshi's present age be x years
Present age of father = 4x
After 5 years,
Age of Sakshi = x + 5
Age of father = 4x + 5
According to the question,
x + 5 + 4x + 5 = 60
5x + 10 = 60
5x = 60-10 = 50
x = 50/5 = 10
Present age of Sakshi = x = 10 years
Present age of father = 4x = 4×10 = 40 years
Present age of father = 4x
After 5 years,
Age of Sakshi = x + 5
Age of father = 4x + 5
According to the question,
x + 5 + 4x + 5 = 60
5x + 10 = 60
5x = 60-10 = 50
x = 50/5 = 10
Present age of Sakshi = x = 10 years
Present age of father = 4x = 4×10 = 40 years
