      Solution

      Let the present age of Ashish be β€˜x’ years. Present age of Vivek = 0.80 Γ— x = β€˜0.8x’ years Present age of Karan = 1.75 Γ— 0.8x = β€˜1.4x’ years According to question, 1.4x – x = 12 0.4x = 12 x = 30 So, the present ages of Ashish, Vivek and Karan are 30 years, 24 years and 42 years, respectively. Average age of Ashish, Vivek and Karan after 7 years = {(30 + 24 + 42)/3} + 7 = (32 + 7) = 39 years
