Question

The father age is 53 year old .he is 5 years older than three times the age of his son

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

16 years old.

If the father is 53 years old

Then the son's age will be 16 years

Solution

Assuming the son's age = Z

(Z× 3 )+ 5 = 53

(Z × 3) = 53 - 5

(Z ×3) = 48

Z = 48/3

Z = 16

Therefore the son's age is 16 years

.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Let the Age of son be ' x '

As per the given conditions ,

we can form the following equation:

5 + 3(x) = 53

→ 3x = 53 - 5

→ 3x = 48

→ x = 48/3

→ x = 16

• so the son is 16 years old .
