A man is 4 times as old as s son,after 16years he will be only twice old as s son. find their present ages?

Let Son's Age be x
Age of man be 4x

After 16 years (+16)

$2(x + 6) = (4x - 2x)$

$2x + 32 = 4x + 16$

$4x - 2x = 32 - 16$

$2x = 16$

$x = 8$

So, Son's Present Age = x = 8 years.

Man's Present age = 4x = 8×4 = 32 years.

Hope helped.
