Answer:

The son is five years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son's age be x

A man is five as old as his son, 5x

In five years, he would be three times as old as his son

In five years: son would be x+5

Father 5x+5

3(x+5)=5x+5

3x+15=5x+5

Collect like terms

15-5=5x-3x

10=2x

Divide by 2

10/2=2x/2

x=5

The son is five years old
