✐ Solution:-

  • Let the age of son be x years

  • And Age of father be 3x years

⟴ According to given conditions;

Sum of thier ages = 52 years

➟ Son's age + father's age = 52 years

⟴ Putting assuming value in equation

➟ x + 3x = 52 years

➟ 4x = 52 years

➟ x = 52 ÷ 4

➟ x = 13 years

⟴ Hence,

  • Age of son = x = 13 years.

  • Age of father = 3x = 39 years.
