Let sum of the ages of 2 sons be x
Then father's age is 3x
Age of 2 sons after 5 years = x+5+5 = x+10
Age of father after 5 years = 2(x+10) -------(1)
and also the age of father after 5 years = 3x+5 -------(2)
Keeping (1)=(2)
2(x+10) = 3x+5
2x +20 = 3x+5
2x-3x = 5-20
-x = -15
So x is equal to 15
So father's age is 45 yrs
