Question

A man is four times as old as his son After 16 years he will be twice as old as his son find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of the son be=x

Therefore , the age of his father = 4x

After 16 years,

 2(x+16)=(4x+16)

 2(x+16)=2(2x+8)

   x+16=2x+8

So, x=8

 therefore,

Age of the son=8 years

Age of his father = 4(8)

                           =32 years
