The ages of a father and his son add up to 66, the father's age is the son's age reversed. How old are they?

Question

Fun question! Well let's take the number 6 first. The numbers that add up to 6 are 1 and 5, 4 and 2, 3, and 3. What if you take those numbers and try to find different combinations. Remember, the father's age is the son's age reversed!

Answer 1

Well I would go with 24 and 42. That was fun!

Answer 2

The age of the father is 42.

The age of the son is 24.

42 is the reversal of 24.

42 + 24 = 66
