Question

A father is 30 years older than his son. After six years he will be 3 times as old as his son will be. Find their present age​

Answer 1

Answer:

The age of his father will be (x + 30). 10 + 30. 40 years. Hence, the correct answer is "40".

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation,

Let the age of the son be x years.

Age of the father be (x + 30) years,

According to the question,

Son age after 5 years,

x + 30 + 5 = 3 (x + 5)

x + 35 = 3x + 15

2x = 20

x = 10.

The age of his father will be (x + 30).

10 + 30.

40 years.

Hence, the correct answer is "40".

Answer 2

(x+30)+6=(3+x)3

4x=36-9=27

x=6.25 year

36.25 year
