All together they peeled 20
J:jacob
G:grandma
4J=G. Since she peeled 4 times as he did
4J=16
J=4
So jacob peeled 4 potatoes
All in all:J+G
4+16=20
Answer:
The son is 4years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the son's age=x
the father's age=8x
IN 10YEARS,
Son's age=x+10
father's age=8x+10
Equate them
8x+10=3(x+10)
8x+10=3x+30
5x=20
x=4
I believe the answer is A, however, i'm not sure. You can try. I hope I helped in any way possible.
