Answer:
Let the age of grandson=y
Let the age of grandfather=x
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that:9 years ago
x-9=9(y-9)
x-9=9y-81
x-9y= -72........(1)
we know that:15 years later
x+15=3(y+15)
x+15=3y+45
x-3y=30...........(2)
with the help of ELIMINATION METHOD:
subtracting eq.2 from eq.1
x-9y=-72
-x+3y=-30
----------------------
-6y=-102
we get
y=17,
x=3y+30
x=51+30,x=81
