Question

the present age of Rama's father is three times that of Ram after 5 years the sum of their ages would be 70 years find their present ages

Answer 1

Let the present age of Father be x yrs
And the present age of Ram be y yrs
ATQ
x = 3y -----------------------------i

After 5 years
Father's age = (x+5) yrs
Ram's age = (y+5) yrs

(x+5) +(y+5) = 70
x+5+y+5 = 70
=> x+y+10 = 70
=> x+y = 60 -------------------------ii

Substituting the value of x from i into ii

3y+y = 60
=> 4y =60
=> y = 15 yrs

x=3y
= 3x15
= 45 yrs

Therefore, The present age of father is 45 years.
And the present age of Ram is 15 years.
