Question

The age of father is 20 years more than twice the age of son.If sum of their ages is 65 years, find the age of the father and son

Answer 1

Hi friend
-----------------
Your answer
---------------------

Let the son's age be x.

Then,
-----------

Equation
---------------

x + (2x+ 20) = 65

=> x + 2x + 20 = 65

=> 3x = 65 - 20

=> x = 45/3

=> x = 15

So,
------

Son's age = 15 years

Father's age = (2x + 20) => (2×15 + 20) => 30+20 => 50 years
