Step-by-step explanation:
Let man’s present age to be x and his grandson’s be y
x=10y Eqation1
x=y+54 Equation2
Put equation one in equation 2
10y=y+54
10y-y=54
9y=54
y=54/9
Y=6
X=10y
X=10*6
X=60
Man’s present age is 60 year and his grandson's present age is 6 years

Answer:
grandfather age = 60
grandson age = 6
solution:
let's grandson present age be x
let's grandfather's age 10x
grandfather age = grandson age + 54
10x = x + 54
10x - x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6
so, x × 10 = 60
6 × 10 = 60
grandfather age = 60
grandson age = 6
