13) If twice the son’s age in years is added to the age of his father the sum is 90. If twice the father’s age in year is added to the age of
the son, the sun in 120. Find their ages.
14) Ram is three times as old as Rahim. Five years later, Ram will be two-and-a –half times as old as Rahim. How old are Ram and
Rahim now?
15) If the numerator of a fraction is multiplied by 2 and its denominator is increased by 2, it becomes 6/7. If instead we multiply the
denominator by 2 and increase the numerator by 2 it reduces to 1/2. What is the fraction?
