Question

Present ages of father and son are in the ratio of 6 : 1 respectively. Four years after the ratio of their ages will become 4 : 1 respectively.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of father be 6a and that of son be a

6a + 4 : a + 4 = 4 : 1

4(a+4) = 6a + 4

4a + 16 = 6a + 4

6a - 4a = 16 - 4

2a = 12

a = 6

So, the present age of son is 6 and that of father is 36
