messages.content: Since the father is walking 3 times as fast as his son, their speeds are in a ratio of 3:1 respectively
  They started at the same time so they will cover distance at the same ratio of 3:1
  Each portion of the distance they covered is 16/(3+1) = <<16/(3+1)=4>>4m
  The father covered three portions of the distance which is 3*4m = <<3*4=12>>12m from his end
