Let present age be X years
Age after 7 years = X + 7
Sum of ages = 41
X + (X+7) = 41
2 X = 41 - 7 = 34
X = 34/2 = 17
Present age = 17 years
Age after 7 years = 24 years
Age after 7 years = X + 7
Sum of ages = 41
X + (X+7) = 41
2 X = 41 - 7 = 34
X = 34/2 = 17
Present age = 17 years
Age after 7 years = 24 years

Answer:
we will make an equation
let her current age be x
x + x + 7 = 41
2x + 7 = 41
2x = 41 - 7 ( sign changes due to transposing )
2x = 34
x = 34/2 ( sign changes due to transposing )
x = 17
age before 7 years = 17 -7
= 10
