Let the present age of the son be x,
Father's present age= 4x
After 20 years ,
Son's age = x+20
Father's age= 4x+20
Now given that after 20 years , father will be 2twice his son's age. so,
4x+20= 2(x+20)
4x+20=2x+40
4x-2x=40-20
2x= 20
x= 20/2
x= 10 years
So son's present age is 10 years .
Father's present age= 4x= 4*10=40years
Therefore Father's present age is 40 years and son's present age is 10years.
