Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

15 & 50, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Age of Son = x

Age of Father = 2x + 20

According to the question,

x + 2x + 20 = 65

3x + 20 = 65

3x = 45 [Subtracting both sides by 20]

x = 15 [Dividing both sides by 3]

Age of Son = 15

Age of Father = 50
