Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jack's present age be x

Hence, his fathers present age=4x

Jacks age after 5 years= (x+5)

Jacks Fathers age after 5 years= (4x+5)

We know.. that the difference between their ages fives years later is 10.. hence

4x+5-(x+5)=10

4x+5-x-5=10

3x = 10

x= 3.3 years old...

Hence,

Jacks present age = 3.3 years

Fathers present age= 13.2 years...

Hope it helps .. I know that the answer comes in decimals... but the questions' like that..
