Question

Ashok's father is 7 times old than his son. 2 years ago,the father was 13 as old as his son. What are their present ages?

Answer 1

Let the age of Ashok be a

Father's age = 7a

Before 2 years,

Ashok's age = a-2

Father's age = 7a - 2

According to question

13(a-2) = 7a - 2

=> 13a - 26 = 7a - 2

=> 6a = 24

=> a = 4

Ashok's age = 4 years

Father's age = 28 years

Answer 2

The question is wrong because the answer is 2 and it can't be possible for present age of ashok
