Answer 2

A father is 36 years old and his son is 16 years old. In how many years will the father be twice as old as his son?

A father is 36 years old and his son is 16 years old. In how many years will the father be twice as old as his son?

F = 36 and S = 16.

F+x = 2(S+x), or

36 + x = 2(16+x) = 32 + 2x, or

4 = x.

So in 4 years, the Father will be 40 years and the Son will be 20 years.
