Question

Father is aged three times more than his son Ronit. After 8 years, he would be two and a half times of Ronit's age. After further 8 years, how many times would he be of Ronit's age?

Answer 1

he will be 2.2 times rohit's age..

Answer 2

Let Ronit's present age be x years. Then, father's present age =(x + 3x) years = 4xyears.

(4x + 8) =5(x + 8)2

8x + 16 = 5x + 40

3x = 24

x = 8.

Hence, required ratio = (4x + 16)/(x + 16) = 48/24 = 2.
