Answer 2

Answer:

$\red\bigstar$ Present age  of Aman = 29 years .

SOLUTION

Let us assume that the present age of Aman be 'x'.

Present age of Aman's father = 44.

It is mentioned in the question that ,

After five years, Aman's age will be the same as what his father's age was 10 years ago.

After 5 years Aman's age = x + 5

10 years ago age of Aman's father = 44 - 10

⇒ 10 years ago age of Aman's father = 34 years.

∴ From the question ,

x + 5 = 34

⇒ x = 34 - 5

⇒ x = 29
