Question

a father is now 3 times as old as his son. 5 years back, he was four times as old as his son. the age of his son will be??? Plss to tell

Answer 1

Let present age of the son = x. Ten present age of the father = 3x + 3
After three years, age of the son = (x+3) and age of the father = (3x+3+3) = (3x+6)
Given that (3x+6) = 10 + 2(x+3)
3x + 6 = 10 + 2x + 6
x = 10
Present age of the father  = 3x+3 = 3*10 + 3 = 33
