Father’s age is 30years more than the son’s age. Ten years hence the father’s age will become three times the son’s age that time. What is son’s present age in years ?

  • 8
  • 7
  • 5
  • Cannot be determined
  • None of these
  • Explanation:

    Let the son's present age be x years

    Father's present age = (x+30) years

    After ten years, Father's age = x+30+10=x+40

    Son's age = x+10

    According to question, 3(x+10) = x+40

                                       3x+30=x+40

                                            2x=10

                                           x=5years

Father’s age is 30years more than the son’s age. Ten years hence the father’s age
