Let man = x+20
son = x
after 10 years ,
man = x+20+10 = x+30
son = x+10
man = 2(son)
x+30= 2(x+10)
x+30= 2x +20
x-2x = 20-30
-x = -10
x = 10
son age is x
man age is 30
son = x
after 10 years ,
man = x+20+10 = x+30
son = x+10
man = 2(son)
x+30= 2(x+10)
x+30= 2x +20
x-2x = 20-30
-x = -10
x = 10
son age is x
man age is 30

ANSWER:-
Given:
A man is 20 year elder to his son after 10 years his age becomes twice the age of his son.
To find:
Their present ages.
Explanation:
Let the present age of the son be R years.
Let the present age of the father be R+20 years.
- After ten years;
The father age twice the age of his son.
⇒ R+20+10= 2(R+10)
⇒ R+30= 2R+20
⇒ R-2R= 20-30
⇒ -R= -10
⇒ R= 10 years.
Thus,
- The present age of the son is 10 years.
- The present age of the father is 10+20=30 years.
