      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. What will be the son’s age after 6 years?
      A 12 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 14 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 18 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let 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 years
      Son’s age after 6 years= ( x + 6 ) = 20 years.
