write an equation for each statement
Age difference between father and son is 35 years and 4 month
f - s = 35 yrs
together their age is 75 years then
f + s = 75
what will be the age of father and son.
add the two equation
f - s = 35yrs
f + s = 75
-------------- adding eliminates s find f
2f = 110 years
divide both sides by 2
f = 55
