Question
A father is three times as old as his son. After 5
years, the father’s age will be twice that of his son. What are their current ages?Solution
Let the son's age = x. Father's age = 3x. After 5 years, (3x + 5) = 2(x + 5). Solving: 3x + 5 = 2x + 10 x = 5 Son’s age = 5 × 3 = 15 years. Correct answer: a) Father: 45, Son: 15
