Interesting question about feet and inches.  The best way to solve this problem is to ask yourself how many inches are in a foot.  Since there are 12 inches in every foot then the length of 2'8" can be written as (2*12)" + 8".  Which is 24+8 or 32 inches.  The second number (1'6") can be written as (1*12)"+6" which is 18 inches.  32 + 18 = 50 inches.  Or, if you want to change this back into feet and inches just divide it by 12.  50/12 is 4 R. 2.  So 4'2".

the sum of ages of father and his son is 60 years.if the difference between their ages is 40 years then find the age of father a
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Father's age is 50, Son's age is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=60

X-Y= 40

Let X represent the Father's age while Y represents the Son's age;

therefore, from the two equations, the value of X is

X= 60-Y

X= 40+Y  then putting in the value of x

(40+Y) + Y= 60,

40+2Y=60

2Y=60-40 =20

Y= 10,

Now that we know the value of Y, we can get the value of x

If X+Y=60, then

X+10=60,

X=60-10,

X= 50
