Answer:
We have no condition on Ram’s age so we can’t figure out how old his father is.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no real answer for this unless we know Ram’s age.
If F is Ram’s Father’s age and R is Ram’s age all we know from the question is:
F=5+3R
If Ram is 5 his Father is 20.
If Ram is 10 his father is 35.
If Ram is 20 his father is 65.
We have no condition on Ram’s age so we can’t figure out how old his father is.

Answer:
The expression for Ram's fathers age is (5x - 3) yrs.

Given:
Ram's age = x yrs.
5 times ram's age =5 × ram's age = 5x
3 yrs. less than 5 times ram's age means we have to subtract 3 from 5x
According to the question:
His father's age = 5x -3 yrs.
