30% of 420 are first year students

Let the father's age be x and son's be y

10 years before-

Father age=x-10

sons age=y-10

Given,

x-10=10(y-10)

x-10=10y-100

Given present age of father=40

therefore,

x=40

40-10=10y-100

10y-100=30

10y=130

y=130/10

y=13

Therefore present age of son=13years

Given height of gymnasium is 5/6 height of 30 foot ball

therefore height of gymnasium=5/6 * 30

=25 feet
