Ramesh's age is 3 times his son's age ten years ago he was 5 times his son's age. Find their present age​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Aman's son age =x

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3x

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3xTen years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3xTen years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.Therefore, 3x−10=5(x−10)

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3xTen years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.Therefore, 3x−10=5(x−10)3x−10=5x−50

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3xTen years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.Therefore, 3x−10=5(x−10)3x−10=5x−502x=40

Let Aman's son age =xAman's age =3xTen years ago, he was 5 times the age of his son.Therefore, 3x−10=5(x−10)3x−10=5x−502x=40x=20

Aman's son is 20 yrs old

Aman is 3x=3×20=60 yrs old.

only change the name

Answer 2

Let the present age of ramesh son = x yrs

Then present age of ramesh = 3x yrs

10 years ago,

Age of ramesh son = (x-10)yrs

Then age of ramesh = (3x-10)yrs

According to question,

3x-10=5(x-10)

3x-10=5x-50

-10+50=5x-3x

40=2x

x=20

Present age of ramesh son=20yrs

Present age of ramesh =60yrs

its the answer....
