Concept introduction:

Mathematical problems called age riddles and tricks ask for a person's age or, alternately, the age of a person given a number of circumstantial factors.

Given:

Here it is given that the father is five times older than his son and after $4$years the sum of their ages would be $44$ years.

To find:

We have to find  the son's age at present.

Solution:

According to the question, let the age of the son is $x$.

Then the age of his father would be $5x$

Now, the equation would be

$x+4+5x+4=44\\= > 6x=36\\= > x=6$

Final answer:

The final answer is the present age of the son is $6$.
