The age of father 4 years ago was 8 times the age of his son. At present the age of father is 4 times that of his son. Find the present age of son. |
09 years 07 years 14 years 18 years |
07 years |
At present, Age of father = 4R and age of son = 1R Four years ago, Age of father = (4R - 4) and age of son = (1R - 4) Now, ATQ ⇒ \(\frac{4R - 4}{1R - 4}\) = \(\frac{8}{1}\) ⇒ 4R - 4 = 8R - 32 ⇒ 4R = 28 ⇒ 1R = 7 Present age of son = 1R = 7 years |
