Answer 1

Question:-

• The sum of the present ages of a fatherband son is 70 years. If after 10 years, the ratio of their ages will be 2: 1, and then what is the present age of the son?​

Given that:-

• After 10 years Age will be in Ratio 2:1 Means Father Age will be 2 Times The son.

So the equation can be set as:-

2(son age after 10 years)=Father Age after 10 years

• 2(y+10)=X+10
• 2y+20=70-y+10
• 2y+20=80-y
• 2y+y=80-20
• 3y=60
• y=60/3
• y=20
• Y=20
• X=70-y
• x=70-20
• X=50

Answer:-

Son Present Age=20 years

Father Present Age=50 years
