You can put this solution on YOUR website! a man is four times older than his wife and five times as old as his son. when the son was born, the age of the wife is six-seventh that of her husband's age. find the age of his wife? :
 This problem is nonsense, 4 times his wife's age and 5 times his son's age is a
 physical impossibility, for example if the man was 80, wife is 20, son is 16 ??
 The last statement is even more ridiculous .
 Whoever inflicted this on you should be be publicly flogged
