Answer 1

Answer:

Let,

Present Age of Anil be x.

So, present Age of Anil's father =3x

Now, 5 years later

Age of Anil =x+5.

Age of Anil's father =3x+5

From the question

3x+5=2

1

(x+5)

⇒3x+5=

2

5

(x+5)

⇒2(3x+5)=5(x+5)

⇒6x+10=5x+25

⇒6x−5x=25−10

∴x=15

Hence

Present Age of Anil x=15 years

present Age of Anil's father =3x=45 years.
