Let aruns age be a
then according to the question,Arun's father's age (let us denote it by f)will be:....f=3a......(eq1)
ALSO a+f=56.....(.eq2)(given in the question).
Now,
putting the value of f from (eq1) to (eq2),we get
a+f=56
➡a+3a=56
➡ 4a =56
➡ a=14
now from (eq1).we get f=3a
➡f=3×14=42
Therefore Arun's age=14 years and
Arun's father's age =42.....

Answer:
Let the present age of Arun be x years.
- It is given that, Arun father's age is 3 times older than Arun. Then the Present age of Arun's father will be 3x years :]
⟐ According to Question now,
➺ 3x + x = 56
➺ 4x = 56
➺ x = 56/4
➺ x = 14 years
Therefore,
- Present Age of Arun = x = 14 years.
- Present Age of Arun's father = 3x = 3(14) = 42 years.
