Let Aman's son age =x
Aman's age =3x
Ten years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.
Therefore, 3x−10=5(x−10)
3x−10=5x−50
2x=40
x=20
Aman's son is 20 yrs old
Aman is 3x=3×20=60 yrs old.

A man's age in three times his son's age. ten years ago, he was five times his son's age.
To Find :
- Their present age = ?
Answer:
- Son's age = 20 years
- Man's age = 60 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let age of son be x years and age of man be 3x years .
★ Ten years ago:
- Sons age = x - 10
- Man's age = 3x - 10
☄ According to Question :-
➦ 3x -10 = 5 * (x-10)
➦ 3x - 10 = 5x - 50
➦ 50 -10 = 5x - 3x
➦ 40 = 2x
➦ x = 40/2
➦ x =20 years
Therefore,
- Son's age = 20 years
- Mans's age = 60 years
