A Correct answer
Explanation

Let Ram's current age = R, Shyam's current age = S. Given R = S - 20. After 5 years: R + 5 = (2/3)(S + 5). Substitute R = S - 20: S - 20 + 5 = (2/3)(S + 5), so S - 15 = (2/3)(S + 5). Multiply by 3: 3S - 45 = 2S + 10, giving S = 55. Then R = 55 - 20 = 35. Ram's present age is 35 years. Option A is correct.
