Question

A father is 30 years older than his son.In 12 years, thean will ne three times as old as his son.find their present ages?

Answer 1

Answer:

Son is 3 and Father is 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let son's age = x

Then, father's age = 30 + x

In 12 years,

30 + x + 12 = 3 (x + 12)

42 + x = 3x + 36

2x = 6

x = 3

Son's age = 3 years

Father's age = 30 + 3 = 33 years
