plz give me solution step-by-step​

Answer 1

Answer:

Present Age of Man = 30 Years

Present Age of Son = 6 Years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the present age of a man =x years

and the present age of his son =y years

According to the question,

x=5y  and x+2=4(y+2)

∵ x+2=4(y+2)

⟹ 5y+2=4y+8

⟹ 5y−4y=8−2

∴ y=6  

Hence, x=5y=5(6)=30

i.e., the present age of a man =30 years

and the present age of his son =6 years
