1. A man's age is now 3 times his son's age. Eight years back, the man's age was 5 times his son's age. What is the present age of the son?

  • A. 15
  • B. 15
  • C. 15
  • D. 15

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let, present age of the son is x

So, 3x = 5 ( x - 8) + 8

3x = 5x - 40 + 8

2x = 32

x = 16.
