8 years ago i was 5 times as old as my son.today i am 3 times his age.how old i am..

Answer / ramesh

Son: 16
Father: 48

----------------------
Assume X as father's Age Today. Y as Son's age today. Based on statement above:
X = 3Y
(X-8) = 5*(Y-8)
Substituting we get
(3Y-8) = 5*(Y-8)
3y = 5Y-40+8
3y = 5Y - 32
32 = 2y
y= 16
X= 3*16 = 48
