​

Answer 1

Answer:

the age of man is 50 and his son is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

let the age of man is x and age of his son must be y

so X=5y

then after 10 year the age of man will be X+10 and the age of his son will 3(5y+10)

so according to question...

5x=y (i)

& x+10=3(5y+10)

from equation (i) we get X=5y then

5y+10=3(5y+10)

y=10

so the age of man is 50 and his son is 10
