Explanation:

Let the current age of Mohan be T years.
The sum of ages of Mohan and Jill is 53 years.
⇒ Age of Jill = (53 – T) years
After 5 years, the ratio of ages of Mohan and Jill will be 3 : 4.
⇒ T + 5 /53 - T + 5 = 3/4
⇒ 4T + 20 = 174 – 3T
⇒ T = 154 /7 = 22
So, Mohan is 22 years old.
Mohan was 7 years younger to Raman 5 years back.
Even now, Mohan would be 7 years younger to Raman.
∴ Current age of Raman = 29 years.
