let the present age of son be x year
then father's age is 5x year
After 2 years
son's age =x+2 year
father's age= 5x+2 year
ATQ
4(x+2)=5x+2
4x+8=5x+2
5x-4x=8-2
x=6
son's age = 6 year
father's age = 5×6=30 year
then father's age is 5x year
After 2 years
son's age =x+2 year
father's age= 5x+2 year
ATQ
4(x+2)=5x+2
4x+8=5x+2
5x-4x=8-2
x=6
son's age = 6 year
father's age = 5×6=30 year
