    Present age of father is 22 years
    as father is 22 years so son is 22-18=4 years
    after 5 years father is 27 and son becomes 9 year which makes father thrice age of his son

    Let Sons present age = x years
    so, fathers present age = x+18 years
    after 5 years, sons age will be = x+5 years
    fathers age will be = x+23 years
    according to the problem,
    x+23 = 3 (x+5)
    or, 2x=8
    or, x=4
    so, fathers present age is (4+18) years = 22 years
