the father is 40 and the son is 10 40 +5=45 10+5=15...............3x15=45 right?? the father is 40 and the son is 10 40 +5=45 10+5=15...............3x15=45 right??
When the father is 40 years old the son will be 8 years of age. 40 is 5 times greater than 8. Subtracting 4 from each gives you their current ages, 36 and 4.
The question can only be answered if the age of the father when the son was born is known. That is information you chose not to share so the question cannot be answered.
Father is 45. Children are 7 and 8.
Joe is 10 years older than James. In 8 years, twice Joe's age will equal three times James's age. How old is each now?

I guess it depends if either you or him is older. If he is older, then 6 years isn't a lot. My best friends parents (who are divorced) well, her father is 11 years older then her mum. It's my opinion but, if you are older then I'm not sure if it'll work. My other best friends mum was 3 years older than her father. HOPE I HELPED! :)
The son is 24 and the father is 44 years

Not at all. It seems strange in these modern times, but right up until the late 40's most men were 7 - 10 years older (sometimes more) than their wives. My father was exactly 8 years older than my mother. If two people love each other then it really doesn't matter. 8 years isn't that much and I highly doubt you are looking for a father figure. Go for it!
Equation 1. f = 13sEquation 2. f + 9 = 4(s + 9) ie f + 9 = 4s + 36 ie f = 4s + 27Substitute for f: 13s = 4s + 27Subtract 4s from each side: 9s = 27Divide each side by 9: s = 3 so f = 39 ( in 9 years s = 12, f = 48)
son- b/t 3 and 4 dad- b/t 36 and 48
No, It just seems odd during school, but a lot of married people are sometimes 5-7 years older than each other.
from the question we have currently:f-3 = 24+s-3 and f = 5ssubstituting f for 5s5s-3 = 24+s-3add 3 to each side5s = 24+ssubtract 1 s from each side4s = 24divide each side by 4s = 6so currently the sons age is 6.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Three years from now, the child will be nine years old.
f - 2 = 4(s - 2) ie f = 4s - 6; f + 3 = 3(s + 3) ie f = 3s + 6; so 4s - 6 = 3s + 6 ie s = 12 Father is 42, son is 12.
if they are 18 or older, they choose a pesident of the us.
