Shobo’s mother’s present age is six times Shobo’s present age. Shobo’s age five years from now will be one third of his mother’s present age. What are their present age?

Let Shobo’s present age be x years.
And Shobo’s mother’s present age = 6x years
According to the question, x+5=1/3X6x
⇒ x+5=2x ⇒ 2x=x+5 ⇒ 2x-x=5
⇒ x=5 Years.
Hence, Shobo’s present age = 5 years and Shobo’s mother’s present age = 6 x 5 = 30 years
