Let the age of his son be x years

Therefore,

Son's age = x

Man's age = 7x

After 4 years...

Son's age = x+4

Man's age = 7x + 4

ATQ...

=> 7x + 4 = 4(x + 4)

=> 7x + 4 = 4x + 16

=> 3x = 12

=> x = 4

Therefore,

Present age of son = 4 years
&
Present age of man = 7 × 4 = 28 years....


hope it helps...✌✌
