Let , present age of Father and Son Be X and Y

Present Age Of father = 3 × present Age of His son

X = 3Y --------- 1

After 12 years

Age of father = 2 × Age of his son

(X + 12) = 2 × (Y + 12)

X + 12 = 2Y + 24

X - 2Y = 12 --------- 2

Put The Value Of X = 3Y in equation 2

3Y - 2Y = 12

➡Y = 12

Put The Value Of Y = 12 In equation 1

X = 3 × 12

➡X = 36

Hence , Present Age of Father is 36 and present age of son is 12
