Question

A man is 24 years older than his son. In 2 years, his age will be twice the age of his son find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

Man = 24 + x

Son = x

After 2 years :

Man : 24 + x + 2 = 2(x+2)

Son : x + 2

26 + x = 2x + 4

x - 2x = 4 - 26

-x = -22

x = 22

Age of son = x = 22

Age of man : 24+x = 24+22 = 46

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the sons present Age be x years.

Then, Mans present age will be (x + 24) years.

According to Question :

➳ x + 24 + 2 = 2(x + 2)

➳ x + 26 = 2x + 4

➳ 26 - 4 = 2x - x

➳ x = 22 years
