person's age = x
his son's age = x/4
his wife' age = x-3
According to question
x/4 + 3 =15
x+12 = 15*4
x+12 =60
x = 60-12
x = 48 years
his Son's age = x/4 = 48/12 = 12 yrs.
His wife's age = x-3 = 48-3 = 45
After 5 years
person's age = 48+5 = 53 yrs.
His son's age = 12+5 = 17 yrs.
His wife's age = 45+5 = 50 yrs.
