Answer:

Please, see below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of tomatoes = 496

Number of tomatoes Peter received = x

Number of tomatoes Gem received = x + 16

Number of tomatoes Tom received = 3x

A) 

according to the question, 

Total number of tomatoes = x + (x + 16) + 3x = 5x +16.

B) 

Equation:

5x + 16 = 496

5x = 480

C) for the value of x 

x = 480/5 = 96

x = 96

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
