Question

a son was born when his father was 28 years old. if the sum of their ages in 2060 is 44. find their age in 2070
​

Answer 1

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son's & Fathers age be " X " & " Y " respectively.

X + 28 = Y ( when born )

X + Y = 44 ( In 2010)

from eq. 1 we get,

X + X + 28 = 44

2X = 16

X = 8

Y = 8 + 28

Y = 36

The son's age is 8 & the dad's age is 36 years in 2010.

Thus for 2020 the son's age is 18 ( 8+10 ) & dad's age is 46 ( 36+10) years.

Hope it's helpfull !
