It's not solvable:
Proof that it's not solvable: 2 simultaneous equations - let F =father and S=son
F = 4S (father is 4 times son's age) and F-5=7S (father minus 5 years equals 7 times son's age).
Combining both gives 4S=7S+5 which is 3S=-5. Clearly you cannot have a negative age, which makes the question nonsensical.
a father is 30 times older than hi son.however after 18 years he will only be thrice as old as his sons age . find the present age of father
6 years ago, they were 26 and 52.Now they're 32 and 58.
fathers age is 73 and sons age is 37...
Roger's age is 4.ExplanationRoger is 4 years old. That's two times the age of his sister, who is 2 years old.Last year, Roger was 3 years old, and his sister was 1; Therefore making Roger 3 times his sister's age.
Penny is five years old. In 10 years she will be 15, which is three times her current age.
36.... lol :P or 20
son is 10, father is 33
Father's age is 5 times his son's age. 4 years back the father was 9 times older than son. Find the fathers present age. a) 45 years b) 40 years c) 50 years d) 35years Cute , he's 40 & the kid is 8 Mathematic explanation: x = father's age y = son's age x = 5y x-4 = 9(y-4) x-4 = 9y-36 x = 9y-32 5y = x = 9y-32 5y = 9y-32 4y = 32 y = 8 x = 5y = 40
a father is 30 years older than his son.in 12 years,the men will be three times as old as his son.find their present ages.

Yes they can if they are over 18 years of age

The founding fathers were educated between the years 1776 to 1787. They had a firm view aboutÊthe focus on education.Ê
Let, son's age be 'x'. So, Father's present age is 4x. Now, by the question, after 20 years, fathers, age=4x+20 and son's age =x+20 and, twice son,s age= father's age so, 2(x+20)=4x+20 2x+40=4x+20 2x=20 x=10 So, son's age is 10 years and father's age is 4x or 40 years.
he would be 45 years old
