Let x be fathers present age and y be son present age.
5 yrs ago, the age of father and son be x-5 & y-5.
Then,
x-5+y-5=40
x+y-10=40
x+y=50
y=50-x ———–> (1)
ratio between father and son in present age
x:y=4:1
x/y=4/1
x=4y
Apply eq (1) ,
x=4(50-x)
x=200-4x
x+4x=200
5x=200
x=200/5
x=40,,
=> The present age of father is 40.

Ques:- Old Man Wrinkle Man Wrinkle spent 1/4th of his life as a boy, 1/8th as a youth, and 1/2 as an active man. If Man Wrinkle spent 8 years as an old man, then how many years did he spend as an active man?
Recent Answer : Added by Emad Samy On 2021-09-14 15:42:00:

32
Solution:

life as a boy = 1/4
life as a youth = 1/8
life as an active man = 1/2
sum of life as boy, youth and active man = 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/2 = 7/8
life as an old man = 1 − 7/8 = 1/8
1/8 Wrinkle’s life (as an old man) is 8 years.
and 1/2 = 1/8 *4
So, 1/2 Wrinkle’s Age (as active man) = 8*4 = 32years.
