Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
(F-6) = (S-6) (Father for F and S for son)
F+ S = 60
(60-S) -6 = 5S -30
54-S = 5S -30
6S- 84
S= 14
so son is 14 years old while father is 46 in six years son will turn 20.
6 years ago son was 8 and his father was 40 (five times the age of son)
sum of father and son's age = 14 +46 = 60
hope it helps
