      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the present age of Sneha and Akash be '6x' years and '8x' years, respectively.

      So, present age of Vikram = 5/8 × 8x = 5x years

      Vikram's present age = (27 + 3) = 30 years.

      So, 5x = 30

      Or, x = 6

      Required sum = (6x + 8x) = (14x) = (14 × 6) = 84 years
