Let Rahim age be x
Rahim's father age =3x
Acording to the ques
Rahim age + Rahim's father age = 56
x + 3x = 56
4x=56
x= 56÷4
x=14

So, Rahim age is 14 years
and Rahim's father age =3x
= 3×14=42years

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Rahim's age be x

Rahim's father age be 3x  

According to the question  

x+3x=56

4x=56  

x= 56/4  

x=14  

3x=42

Therefore, Rahim's age is 14 years and his father's age is 42 years.
