Ram is 27 year old then Mohan. After 7 years Ram's age is thrice as Mohan's age. Find Ram's age?

• let ram's age as y and mohan's age as x
  from the first sentence we get, y=x+27
  from the second sentence we get, i.e. after 7 yrs, y+7=3(x+7)
  now, after sloving this we get y=67/2 i.e.33.5
  so ram's age is 33.5

• let mohan's age = x then ram is =x+27.
  given, after 7 years
  Ram is thrice as old as mohan
  so
  3(x+7+7) = x+27+7
  mohan = x= 6.5
  ram = 27+6.5 = 33.5
