10. Mohan is five times older than his son. After 4 years the sum of their ages will be 44 years. Find the present age of Mohan.
Let Son;s age-x
Father's age 5x
After 4 years
son's age=x+4
Father's age=5x+4
Sum of ages=(x+4)+(5x+4)
6x+8=44
6x=44-8
6x=36
x=36/6=6
So Present age of mohan=5x=5x6=30 Years
