Answer 2

Answer:

Age of man = 50

Age of his son = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of man be = x

and age of his son be = y

so X = 5y

then after 10 years 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)-----------(ii)

from equation (i) we get X = 5y then putting the value of x in equation (ii)

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

y = 10

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