Answer:

anil's age= 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

anil's father is eight times older than anil

if we take anil's age as x years, then his father's age will be 8x years

sum of their ages = 8x + x = 9x = 72

when 9x = 72

x = 72 ÷ 9 = 8

and x is the age of anil

so, anil is 8 years old

Given :-

  • ➵ Age of Anil father is 8 times as old as Anil.
  • ➵ Sum of their ages is 72 years.

To Find :-

  • ➵ Age of Anil = ?

Solution :-

Let :

{\large{\blue{\rightarrowtail}}{\bf{Anil \:  age = x  \: years}}}

{\large{\blue{\rightarrowtail}}{\bf{Anils  \: father  \: age = 8x  \: years}}}

{\large{\blue{\rightarrowtail}}{\bf{Sum = 72  \: years}}}

Age of Anil :

{\large{:{\longmapsto{\bf{8x + x = 72  \: years}}}}}

{\large{:{\longmapsto{\bf{9x = 72}}}}}

{\large{:{\longmapsto{\bf{X = {\cancel\frac{72}{9} }}}}}}

{\large{\purple{:{\longmapsto{\underline{\overline{\red{\boxed{\bf{X = 8}}}}}}}}}}</p><p>

Hence :-

Age of son = X = 8 years.
