Answer: If it's correct then plzzz mark it as the Brainliest

Step-by-step explanation: Let the present ages of the father and son be x and y.

Then x+y=60. Or x= 60-y.

5 years ago their ages were x-5 and y-5. Then

(x-5) =4 (y-5).

substituting the value of x above we get

60-y-5 =4 (y-5).

Or 55-y = 4y- 20

Or 5y = 55+20=75.

Or y = 75/5 =15.

Now x = 60-y = 60-15 = 45.

Therefore the ages of the father and son are 45 and 15 respectively.
