48 years

35 years

42 years

30 years

- Let Sangeeta's current age be \( x \).

- Ramesh's present age will then be \( x + 7 \).

- Mayank is currently 10 years old.

- In 6 years, Ramesh's age will be \( x + 7 + 6 \).

- Mayank's age in 6 years will be \( 10 + 6 = 16 \).

- According to the given condition, in 6 years, Ramesh’s age equals three times Mayank’s age:

\( x + 13 = 3 \times 16 \)

Simplifying, \( x + 13 = 48 \).

- Solving for \( x \), we find \( x = 35 \).

Therefore, the present age of Sangeeta is 35 years.

Option: 2 - 35 years.
