Answer:
Let the present age of the father be:x
And that of the son be :y
Therefore from 1st condition:
(x-1)=4(y-1)
(x-1)=4y-4
x-4y=-4+1
x-4y=-3———————equation 1
From 2nd condition,
(x+6)=2(y+6)+9
x+6=2y+12+9
x-2y=15———————equation 2
Therefore after subtracting equation 1 from 2 we get,
y=9
Now let's replace y with 9 in 2nd equation,
We have,
x-18=15
x=33
Hence the present ages of father and his son are 33 and 9 respectively!!
