Find their present ages.​

Answer 1

Answer:

father' s age is 32

son ' s age is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ade of son be X and father age be 4X

Age after 16 years , fathers age 4X + 16

Age after 16 years , son age X + 16

ATQ,

4X+16 = 2(X + 16)

4X+16 = 2X + 32

4X - 2X = 32 - 16

2X = 16

X = 8

fathers age = 32

son age = 8
