Let the greater and the smaller number be g and s respectively.gs = 2560g + s exceeds g - s by 64 i.e., g + s - (g - s) = 64i.e., 2s = 64 => s = 32.g = 2560/s = 80.
Let the present age of the father be 'x' and that of the son be 'y'. Then x/y = 8/3∴ 3x = 8y Further, x + 12/y + 12 = 2/1 ∴ x + 12 = 2y + 24 ∴ x - 2y = 12 ......(ii)From eqn (i) and (ii), x = 48, y = 18 ∴ sum = 66 yrs.
