Answer:24
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of their ages is 60 yr. As such
7x + 3x = 60
10x = 60
x = 60 / 10
x = 6
The rationale is 6, therefore
Father's age is 7x = 7 × 6= 42 years
Son's age is 3x = 3 × 6 = 18 years
Difference in their ages
42 - 18 = 24 years

This is the answer in expanded form: 100,000 + 10,000 + 4,000 + 6<span />
We can use a system of equations in order to solve for both of the numbers. Let's start off by assigning variables to each number. The bigger number can be 'x', and the smaller number can be 'y'.
We can make two equations from the given:
x = 18 + y
("One number is 18 more than another number")
x + y = 36
("The sum of the numbers is 36")
If you look at the first equation, the variable 'x' already has a value (18 + y). We can input its value into the second equation in order to solve for y:
x + y = 36
(18 + y) + y = 36
18 + 2y = 36
2y = 18
y = 9
Input the value of 'y' into the first equation:
x = 18 + y
x = 18 + 9
x = 27
<u>One number is 27 and the other number number is 9.</u>
