Answer 2

Answer:

The age of Father is 36 years

The age of Son is 6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Son's present age = x

Father's present age = 6x

After 4 years,

The age of Son = x + 4

The age of Father = 6x + 4

Also,

The age of the father will be 4 times his son's age

So,

⇒ 4 (x + 4) = 6x + 4

⇒ 4x + 16 = 6x + 4

⇒ 4x - 6x = 4 - 16

⇒ - 2x = - 12

⇒ 2x = 12

⇒ x = 12 / 2

⇒ x = 6

.°. The age of Son = 6 years

★ Value of 6x :

⇒ 6 (6)

⇒ 6 × 6

⇒ 36

Therefore,

The age of Father is 36 years

The age of Son is 6 years
