~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since Amanda is 25 years old now, in 5 years she will be 25+5 = 30 years old.
Then Simone age in 5 years will be = 15 years, according to the condition.
Hence, Simon is 15-5 = 10 years old now. It is his current age. ANSWER
It is what the condition says and how it should be understood.
No equations are needed -- only a bit of common sense.
