      Solution

      ATQ;

      Let the present age of 'Bittu' be '8x' years.

      So, present age of 'Puneet' = 8x X 1.375 = '11x' years

      ATQ;

      {(11x + 8x) + 8 + 8} ÷ 2 = 8x + 11

      Or, 19x + 16 = 16x + 22

      Or, 3x = 6

      So, x = 2

      So, present age of 'Bittu' = 2 X 8 = 16 years
