Question

5. The age of Ram's father is 4 times of his age. Five years ago, his father's age was nine times of his son's age at that time. Find the present age of both.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let’s Ram’s present age is x

Then his father’s present age is 4x

Five years ago,

Ram’s age : x-5

Father’s age : 4x-5

According to question Ram’s father’s age was 9 times his age before 5 years . So

9(x-5)=4x-5

Solving this equation

x = 8

Ram’s age = 8

Ram’s father’s age = 32
