उत्तर
Let the present age of father = x years and that of son = y years
After 10 years,
father's age = (x + 10) years
son's age = (y + 10) years
According to given information, we have
x = 7y ....(i)
And,
(x + 10) = 3(y + 10)
⇒ x + 10 = 3y + 30
⇒ x - 3y = 20
⇒ 7y - 3y = 20 ...[From (i)]
⇒ 4y = 20
⇒ y = 5
⇒ x = 7 x 5
= 35
Thus, the present age of son is 5 years and that of father is 35 years.
