Question

ramu father is four times as old as ramu.after 16 years,he will be just twice his son's age.find their present age.​

Answer 1

Let the present age of Ramu be x years. thus the age of ramu's father=4x yrs. ramu's father's age after 16 years=4x+16 yrs. thus the present age of Ramu=8 yrs. please mark as brainliest

Answer 2

Ramu's age = x

Ramu' father age = 4x

After 16 years,

Ramu's age = (x + 16)

Ramu's father age = (4x + 16)

According to question,

2(x + 16) = 4x + 16

2x + 32 = 4x + 16

2x = 16

x = 8

Ramu's present age = 8 years

Ramu's father present age = 32 years
