Answer:
30 Yrs and 6 Yrs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the father and Son's ages.
x = 5y.
x+6 = 3(y+6)
substitute x = 5y in above equation.
=> 5y + 6 = 3y + 18
=> 5y - 3y = 18 - 6
=> 2y = 12
=> y = 6.
Hence x = 5 y = 5 * 6 = 30.
Thus Father's present age = 30 yrs..
Son's present age = 6 yrs.
