Abhays age after three years will be three-seventh of his
fathers age . ten years ago ,the ratio of their ages was
1:5 . what is Abhays fathers age at present ?(*** plz give
explanation also***)

Answer Posted / ronak

Let suppose, in present abhays age is 'x' and his fathers
age is 'y' . after three years abhays age is x+3 and his
fathers age is y+3 . acc. to ques. abhays age is will be
equal to 3/7 of his fathers age. so x+3=3/7(y+3). and ten
years ago its mean abhays age was x-10 and his fathers age
was y-10 . the ratio was 1:5.so (x-10)=1/5(y-10) . by
solving both equation we get y=42.
so abhays fathers age at present is 42 years.
