Hey friend here is your answer :
Varsha is 15 years older than Prateek.
Let the present age of Prateek be x, thus the present age of Varsha is x + 15
10 years ago, Varsha was four times Prateek’s age.
10 years ago their ages were Prateek’s age x - 10 and Varsha's age x + 15 - 10 = x + 5
x + 5 = 4 (x - 10)
x + 5 = 4x - 40
x - 4x = -40 - 5
-3x = -45
3x = 45
x = 45/3
x = 15
This Prateek's present age is 15 years
Therefore Varsha's present age x + 15 = 15 + 15 = 30 years
Their present ages are Varsha's age 30 years and Prateek's age 15 years.
Answer: Their present ages are Varsha's age 30 years and Prateek's age 15 years.
