Since the difference between the divisors and the respective remainders is not constant, back substitution is the convenient method. None of the given numbers is satisfying the condition.
Let the age of the son be x and the age of the father be y.Therefore, x + y = 65 ..........(i)or, 2 x (x + 5) = (y + 5)or, 2x + 10 = y + 5or, 2x - y = 5 ...................(ii)From equations (i) and (ii), x = 20, y = 45
