Correct Answer: 20
Solution : Given: The ratio of the father's age to the son's age is 5 : 2. The product of their age is 160.
Let the age of the father = 5X And the age of the son = 2X According to the question, 5X × 2X = 160 10X 2 = 160 X 2 = 160/10 X = 4
Therefore, the age of the son is 5 × 4 = 20. Hence, the third option is correct.
