Let the Present age of Sanjay (in Years ) = x
Therefore , Present age of Sheila = x + 15
After 10 years,
Shielas age =  x + 15 + 10
= x + 25
sanjay's age = x + 10

According to question ,
x + 25 = 2 (x + 10)
x + 25 = 2x + 20
25 = 2x + 20 - x
25 = x + 20
25 - 20 = x
5 = x
or x = 5
Hence Present age of Sanjay = 5 years 
and Present age of Shiela = x+15
= 5 +15 
= 20 years
