n. (a) if the son is x yrs old,how old is the father. (b) if the ratio of their ages is 5:2,find the age of the son?
1 answer:
Answer:
Father age is 40 and Son age is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Father be x and Son be y.
If their ratio of their age is 5:2 then
Find Y:
2x = 5y
- x = 5y/2
- 5y/2 = y+24
- 5y= 2y + 48
- 5y-2y = 48
- 3y=48
- y=48/3
- y = 16
Find X
- x=y+24
- x=16+24
- x=40
