Answer:

After 2 years his son will be 3.2 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

7 years ago Mr Hanson was 26 years older than his son .At the present he is 6 times the age of his son.

To find:

How old would his son be in 2 year time

Solution:

Let the age of Hanson before 7 years be x and his son age be y

x - y = 26 …(1)

x – 26 = y …(2)

after 7 years,

(x + 7) = 6 (y+7) …(3)

x + 7 = 6y + 42

x – 6y = 35 …(4)

x – 6(x – 26) = 35

x – 6x + 156 = 35

5x = 121

x = 24.2

24.2 – y = 26

y = 1.2

After 2 years his son will be 3.2 years.
