    1. Best Answer

      Let the present age of Amon’s son be x years.
      Therefore, Aman’s age = 3x years
      According to question,
      3x-10=5(x-10)
      ⇒ 3x-10=5x-50
      ⇒ 3x-5x=-50+10
      ⇒ -2x = -40
      ⇒ x=-40/-2 =20years
      Hence, Aman’s son’s age = 20 years and Aman’s age = 3 x 2 = 60 years
