Answer:
HERE'S YOUR ANSWER BUDDY
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of son be x & that of Father be Y
then Y = 5 x
After 8 years
Y + 8 = 3 ( x + 8)
or Y + 8 = 3 x + 24
Replacing the value of Y from previous equation we have
5 x + 8 = 3 x + 24
or 2 x = 16
or x = 8
Therefore Y will be 40
Now after 8 years Father will be 48 years old son will be 16 which is three times.
