this problem, as it is formulated and presented, has many solution, and a unique solution CAN NOT be identified/extracted.


So, double check your source (if you have it . . . )


Also, the first phrase "Mr. Reyes is older than his son" can easily be ommitted, since it does not carry any sense.

Indeed, it was not occurred in the nature yet that the father was younger than or the same age as the son.
