Answer 1

let the age of son be x then , age of man = x+26

age of son after 10 years

= x+10 age of man after 10 years

= x+26+10=> x+36

according to question, x+36

= 3(x+10) x+36

= 3x+30 6 = 2x

x= 6/2 = 3 years

age of son = x= 3 yrs

age of man = x+26 = 26+3 = 29 years

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

et (x) be the present age of the son, then present age of the father will be (x+26). Present age of son = 3 & present age of the father = 3+26 = 29. ... A father is three times old as his son. In 10 years time, he will be double his son's age.
