\sf\red{\underline{\underline{Answer:}}}

\sf{Ages \ of \ Rahul \ and \ his \ father \ is}

\sf{20 \ and \ 50 \ years \ respectively.}

\sf\orange{Given:}

\sf{\implies{The \ present \ ages \ of \ Rahul's \ father}}

\sf{is \ \frac{5}{2} \ times \ the \ present \ age \ of \ Rahul.}

\sf{\implies{After \ 8 \ years \ ages \ will \ add \ to \ 86 \ years}}

\sf\pink{To \ find:}

\sf{The \ present \ ages \ of \ Rahul \ and \ his \ father.}

\sf\green{\underline{\underline{Solution:}}}

\sf{Let \ the \ age \ of \ Rahul \ be \ x \ years.}

\sf{\therefore{His \ father's \ age=\frac{5x}{2}}}

\sf{According \ to \ the \ given \ condition}

\sf{(x+8)+(\frac{5x}{2}+8)=86}

\sf{x+\frac{5x}{2}+16=86}

\sf{\frac{2x+5x}{2}=86-16}

\sf{\frac{7x}{2}=70}

\sf{x=70\times\frac{2}{7}}

\boxed{\sf{\therefore{x=20}}}

\sf{\therefore{Rahul's \ age=20 \ years}}

\sf{Rahul's \ father's \ age=\frac{5}{2}\times20=50 \ years.}

\sf\purple{\tt{\therefore{Ages \ of \ Rahul \ and \ his \ father \ is}}}

\sf\purple{\tt{20 \ and \ 50 \ years \ respectively.}}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of rahul be x.

age of his father = 5/2x

after 8 years,

age of rahul = x+8

age of his father= 5/2x+8

after 8 years the ages will add to 86 years...

this emplies;

x+8+5/2x+8 = 86
