    Solution

    ATQ, Let son’s age be x and Mukesh’s age be 4x. Mukesh’s age is 4 times more aged than his son, therefore Mukesh’s present age = x + 4x = 5x After 8 years, Mukesh’s age is 4 times older than his son’s age. (5x + 8) = 4(x + 8) 5x - 4x = 32 - 8 x = 24 After 8 years it was (5x + 8), =128years Son age = x + 16 =40 years
