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
Let the number be 10x + y.∴ x + y = 12 ...........(i)10x + y - (10x + x) = 18or 10x + y - 10y - x = 18or 9x - 9y = 18∴ x - y = 2From (i) and (ii), x = 7, y = 5∴ Number = 75
