To convince others about his opinion he makes comparison between walking barefoot rafting gliding. Why? He must be assuming the assumptions III and II also.
Correct Answer: 14 years
Explanation:
Let us assume the present ages of son be Y then his father present age will be Y + 34 years. then
12 years ago, father's age = Y + 34 -12
12 years ago, Son's age = Y - 12
Now according to question,
12 years ago, father's age was 18 times the age of his son. then
18( Y - 12 ) = Y + 34 - 12
? 18Y - 216 = Y + 22
? 17Y = 238
? Y = 14
Hence, present age of his son = 14 years.
