Answer 1

let the present age of ramu be x
then ramu's father's age is 3x
A/q
x + 5 + 3x + 5 = 70
4x + 5 = 70
4x = 70 - 5
4x = 65
x = 65/4
x = 13

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Present age of Ramu = 10 years

Present age of his father = 40 years

___________________________

★ Given ★

1 . The age of Ramu's father is 4 times that of Ramu

2 . After 5 years it would be 3 times

★ To Find ★

Their present ages

★ Solution★

Let the present age of Ramu be , " x "

So , Present age of Ramu's Father = " 4x "

[ ∵ From 1st condition ]

After 5 years ,

→ Ramu's age = x + 5

→ Ramu's father age = 4x + 5

So ,

A/c to 2nd condition ,

⇒ 4x + 5 = 3 ( x + 5 )

⇒ 4x + 5 = 3x + 15

⇒ 4x - 3x = 15 - 5

⇒ x = 10

So , Present age of Ramu ,

x = 10 years ★

Present age of of Ramu's father ,

4x = 40 years ★
