Correct Answer: 63 years
Explanation:
Let us assume the present age of son be x then present of Deepak be 3x.
Five years hence, the ratio of their ages will be 34 : 13 respectively.
then according to question,
(3x + 5)/(x + 5) = 34/13
⇒ (3x + 5) 13 = 34 (x + 5)
⇒ 39x + 65 = 34x + 170
⇒ 5x = 105
∴ x = 21
Hence, present age of Deepak = 3x = 3 x 21 = 63
