Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let son age = x

The age of father six times the age of his son = 6x

Four years hence = 6x +4. Eq 1

The age of father will be four times the age of his son = 4( x+4) Eq 2

Eq 1= Eq 2

6x+4= 4(x+4) = 6x +4 = 4x + 16 = 6x+4-4x-16 =0

2x = 12

x =12/2=6. x=6

Substitute in 6x = 6(6)=36

Hence 6 and 36

Let the present age of father's be x years and present age of son's be y years.

According to the problem

x=6y

After 4 years

x+4=4(y+4)

Hence we get two equations

x=6y ......... (1)

x+4=4(y+4) ..... (2)

Simplifying eq (2)

x+4=4y+16

x−4y=12

Put x=6y in eq (2), we get

6y−4y=12

2y=12

y=6 years

and x=6y=36 years

Present age of son =6 years

and present age of father =36 years
