A) 10 years
B) 13 years
C) 39 years
D) 29 years
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Let the son's present age be x years. Then the father's age is \[(26+x)\]years. In 3 years' time, son's age \[=(x+3)\] years and father's age\[=(26+x+3)\] years \[=(x+29)\]years. \[\Rightarrow \]\[x+3=\frac{1}{3}(x+29)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=10\] \[\therefore \]The present age of the son is 10 years.You need to login to perform this action.
