Answer:

72 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

let, uncle's present age be 2X years

Therefore, Uncle's son's present age = X years

Therefore, 18 years ago

Uncle's age = 2X-18 years

Uncle's son's age = X-18 years

Now, according to question:

2X-18=3(X-18)

or, 2X-18= 3X -54

or, 54-18= 3X-2X

or, 36= x

Therefore, Uncle's present age = 72 years
