Question

Age of a father is twice the age of his son if father is 16 year old than his son find the age of father and his son
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the age of son be x

Father's age be x+16

According to question

2x=x+16

2x-x=16

x=16

Sons age=16 years

Father's age=x+16

=16+16

=32

Let's verify

Father's age=twice the age of son

=2x

=2(16)

=32 years which is same as x+16

Hence the given solution,

Sons age=16 years

Sons age=32 years
