3 years ago father's age was 2 years more than 7 times son's age.after 5 years father's age will be 6 years more than 3 times son 's age.son's present age is​

Answer 1

Let the son's age be x

Then , according to the condition,

father's age =3x+3

3 years later:

Son's age =x+3

Father's age =3x+3+3=3x+6

According to the condition given ,

3x+6=10+2(x+3)

3x+6=10+2x+6

x=10

Thus , the son's present age is 10 years and the father's age is

3x+3=3×10+3=33 years.
