Let's denote Zoron's current age as ( Z ) and his sister's age as ( S ). According to the problem, we have two equations: ( Z = S + 10 ) and ( Z + 3 = 2(S + 3) ). Substituting the first equation into the second gives ( (S + 10) + 3 = 2(S + 3) ). Solving this, we find ( S = 7 ) and ( Z = 17 ); thus, Zoron is currently 17 years old, and his sister is 7 years old.
