Question

The present age of a father is 9 times the age of his son after 3 years the fathers age will be 5 times the age of his son find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

sons age = 3

father's age = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

let sons age be = x

then father's age be = 9x

after 3 years

sons age = x+3

father's age =5(x+3)

9x+3=5(x+3)

9x+3=5x+15

9x-5x=15-3

4x=12

x=12/4

x=3

so son's age =3

and father's age=9*3=27
