Answer 1

Question:-

• Aman's age is three times his sons Age. Ten years ago he was five times his son's age. Find their present ages.

Step-by-step solution:-

• son age be x.
• Aman age is 3x.

⟶ ten years ago son's age (x - 10)

⟶ aman age (3x -10).

according to question,

⟶ 5(x-10) = 3x -10

⟶ 5x -50 = 3x - 10

⟶ 2x = 40

⟶ x =20

Therefore,

son present age = 20years.

aman present age = (3x - 10) = 50years.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Aman's age be x and his son's age be y .

According to the question , x = (y)3

10 years ago , Aman's age was (x-10) and his son's age was (y-10).

(x-10) = (y-10)5

x-10=5y-50

x-5y=10-50

x-5y=-40

x-5y +40 =0

then solve this : x-5y+40=0
