Answer:
Let's denote the present age of Sail as "x" and the present age of Sail's mother as "3x".
According to the given information, the sum of their ages after 5 years will be 66 years.
In 5 years, Sail's age will be x + 5, and Sail's mother's age will be 3x + 5.
Therefore, we can set up the equation:
(x + 5) + (3x + 5) = 66
Simplifying the equation:
4x + 10 = 66
Subtracting 10 from both sides:
4x = 56
Dividing both sides by 4:
x = 14
So, Sail's present age is 14 years, and Sail's mother's present age is 3x = 3 * 14 = 42 years.
