Question

Q1. A father said to his son, "I was as old as you are at the present at the time of your birth". If the father's age is 38 years now, the son's age five years back was ?

15 Years

10 Years

14 Years

12 Years

Accepted Answer

Answer : 14 Years

Let the son's present age be x years.
Then, (38 - x) = x
⇒ 2x = 38.
⇒ x = 19.

∴ Son's age 5 years back = (19 - 5) = 14 years.
