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.

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:

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..
