Question

I am currently 5 times as old as my son's age. In 6 years I will be three times as old as he will be then what are our ages now?

Answer 1

Answer:

30 years old age

5 time x into 6 =30 year age

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of my son be x years.

Therefore, my age will be 5x years.

After 6 years:-

Age of my son = (x + 6) years

My age = (5x + 6) years

According to the question,

5x + 6 = 3(x + 6)

= 5x -3x = 18 - 6

= 2x = 12

= x = 6

The Age of my son = 6 years.

My age = 5 x 6 = 30 years.
