Ayesha's father was 38 years of age when she was born while her mother
was 36 years old when her brother four years younger to her was born.

Question :
The sum of the present ages of a father and his son is 60 years. Six
years ago, father's age was five times the age of the son. After 6
years, son's age will be:
Let the present ages of son and father be x and (60 -x) years respectively.
Then, (60 - x) - 6 = 5(x - 6)
54 - x = 5x - 30
6x = 84 x = 14.
Son's age after 6 years = (x+ 6) = 20 years..

Question :
The age of
father 10 years ago was thrice the age of his son. Ten years hence,
father's age will be twice that of his son. The ratio of their present
ages is:
Let the ages of father and son 10 years ago be 3x and x years respectively.
Then, (3x + 10) + 10 = 2[(x + 10) + 10]
3x + 20 = 2x + 40
x = 20.
Required ratio = (3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 70 : 30 = 7 : 3.
