Solution
Seven years ago. let Swati's age be x years. Then, seven years ago Varun's age was 5x2 years.
Swati's present age =(x+7) years, Varun's present age=(5x2+7) years
Three years hence, we have Swati's age (x+7+3) years =(x+10) years
Varun's age =(5x2+7+3)=(5x2+10)
It is given that three years hence Swati's age wil be 25 of Varun's age
