Answer:

25 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of ages of Farhan and his cousin = 38

7 years ago Farhan thrice of his cousin = 3:1

7 year ago the sum of their ages = 38-14 = 24( 7 years for each)

3:1 = 4 units = 24

1 unit =6

ages of Farhan and his cousin 7 years ago  = 6*3= 18 and 6*1 = 6

so the present age of Farhan = 18+7 = 25 and his cousin 6+7 = 13
