In Present
Let Age of Son=x years
Then,Age of Man=(x+24) years
After 2 years
Son Age=(x+2) years
Father Age=(x+24+2) years
Father Age is also 2Ă—Son age after 2 years
MEANS
2(x+2)=(x+24+2)
2x+4=x+26
2x-x=26-4
x=22
X is age of Son =22 years
X+24 is age of Man=22+24=45 years

Question:-
A man is 24 years older than his son. In two years his age will be twice the age of his son.The present age of his son is??
Solution:-
Let,
the ptesent age of son be x yrs.
then,
his father's present age will be (x+24) yrs.
Now,
after two years,
age of son = (x+2) years
age of father = (x +26) years
A.T.Q
x + 26 = 2(x+2)
=> 2x - x = 26 - 4
=> x = 22
Hence,
present age of
son is 22 years
and
Father is 46 years.
