Calculation:

Let be assume present age of Neetu, Meetu, and Geetu is N, M, and G

⇒ N  = M + 10     ...1)

⇒ M - 7 = G     ...2)

According to the question:

⇒ N + M + G = 48

⇒ By Using equation (1) and (2)

⇒ M + 10 + M + M - 7 = 48

⇒ 3M = 45

⇒ M = 15

Using  equation 1,

⇒ N  = 15 + 10

⇒ N  = 25

∴ The required result will be 25.
