the present age of the father is four times that of his son . 20 years hence the age of father will be twice the age of the son . find their present ages
Age of son = 10 years
Age of father = 40 years
Let the present age of son be x
Present age of father = 4x
Age after 20 years :-
→ Son's age = x + 20
→ Father's age = 4x + 20
According to the question :-
→ 2( x + 20 ) = 4x + 20
→ 2x + 40 = 4x + 20
→ 4x - 2x = 40 - 20
→ 2x = 20
→ x = 20 / 2
→ x = 10
