Answer 2

The sum of their ages after 3 years will be 46 years.

Given,

The sum of the ages of the son and father before 5 years was 30 years.

To Find,

The sum of their ages after 3 years.

Solution,

Let us assume that the present age of the son is x years and the father is y years.

So, according to the question

The sum of their ages before 5 years = 30

(x-5)+(y-5) = 30

x+y-10 = 30

x + y = 40

Now, the sum of their age after 3 years will be

(x+3)+(y+3) = x+y+6

substituting the value of x + y

x+y+9 = 40+6= 46 years.

Hence, the sum of their ages after 3 years will be 46 years.
