Question

The age of father is a two digit number. If 5 is added to the double of the digit in the tenth place of father's age will be the age of son. If the sum of their ages is 65 and 1 is subtracted from the number obtained by reversing the digit of son age,will be the age of father. Find the present age of father and son?​

Answer 1

The father is 50 and his son is 15.

Explanation:

Double the tens digit of the father's age = 10

Plus 5 = 15 (the age of the son)

50 + 15 = 65 (the sum of their ages)

The reverse of the digits of the son's age is 51.

Subtract 1 = 50 (the age of the father)
