Question

the present age of the father is 5 years more than twice the age of his son two years ago father age was 1 year more than thrice the age of the son find the present age of the son

Answer 1

Answer:

2years is the age of the son

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of son be 'x'

so, present age of father= 5+2x

two years ago

father's age= (5+2x)-2=3+2x=1+3x

=> so, 3+2x=1+3x

=> 3-1=3x-2x

=>2=x=son's present age
