Question

a father is 27 years older than his son. ten years ago he was twice as old as his son. how old is the father​

Answer 1

thus the father is 64 years and son is 37years

Explanation:

Let father be X and son be y

X=27+Y...........(I)

X-10=2(Y-10)

putting the value of X from eqn(I)

27+Y-10=2Y-20

Y+17=2Y-20

17+20=2Y-Y

37=y

X=27+Y

X=64
