A father said to his son, "I was as old as you are at the present at the time of your birth". If the father's age is 38 years now, the son's age five years back was:

  • 114 years
  • 219 years
  • 333 years
  • 438 years
Answer:- 1
Explanation:-

Solution:
Let the son's present age be x years. Then, (38 - x) = x
⇒ 2x = 38.
⇒ x = 19.
∴ Son's age 5 years back (19 - 5) = 14 years.
