Kate is 3 years old
Explanation:
Kate is x for example, then her father would be
x+32
In five years he would be x+32+5, x+37, but he would also be 5 times older.
Kate will also be x+5.
SO, we know that
x+37=5 · (x+5)
When we simplify, we get
x+37 = 5x+25
Simplify further, you get
12=4x, so
3=x
Kate is 3 years old currently
Equations :
f=k+32
f+5=5(k+5)
_____
k+32+5=5k+25
k+37=5k+25
4k=12
kate age is now 3 years old.
