Your age is a multiple of 8 that is less than 34: 8, 16, 24, or 32.

For which of those ages will your age 1 year from now be a multiple of 5?

your age is 24

We know if your age + 1 is divisible by 5, it has to end in a digit of 4 or 9
the only integer ending in 4 and divisible by 8, and less then 34, is 24
