Let age of father be 3x
And son be x
After 5 years...
3x+5=x+5×2. 5
2x=12
X=6

Lavan4: i think your answer is wrong. 11 is not equal to 5/2 of 23
Lavan4: sorry
Lavan4: 23 is not equal to 5/2 of 11

let my age be 3x and son's age be x
five years later
3x +5 = 5/2(x+5)
(3x+5)×2=5x+25
6x+10=5x+25
x=15
I am 45 and son's is 15
