Answer 1

Answer:

Man will be only twice as old as his son. x = 15. Therefore the age of son = 15 years. the age of man = 45 years. please mark me as brainlist and follow me ..

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the present age of son be x years

Then, present age of other =3x years

After 15 years :

Son's age =(x+15) years

Father's age =(3x+15) years

But, according to the question.

⇒(3x+15)=2(x+15)

⇒3x+15=2x+30

⇒3x−2x=30−15

⇒x=15

∴ Son's age is 15 years...
