Answer:

The son age is 10 years

And, his mother age be 40 years

Explanation:

Given that

The mother is four times the age of her son

And, in 5 years, she will be three times as old as him

We need to find out the ages of both

Here we assume that the age of her son be x

So the mother age be 4x

Now in 5 years, her mother would be 3 times as old as his son

So,

4x + 5 = 3(x + 5)

4x + 5 = 3x + 15

x = 10

The son age is 10 years

And, his mother age be 40 years
