Let- age of his sister be x.
So, the age of Arvind will be=x+8
After 3 years
The age of his sister=x+3
The age of Arvind=x+8+3
=x+11=2[x+3]
EQUATION-
2[x+3]=x+11
=2x+6=x+11
=2x-x=11-6
=x=5
So the age of his sister now is 5 years and the age of Arvind is 5+8=13years.

Answer:
13years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sister's age = x years
Arvind's age = (x + 8) years.
In three years, sister's age= ( x + 3) years
In three years, Arvind's age = (x + 8 + 3) years
According to statement,
x+8+3=2(x+3)
⟹x+11=2x+6
⟹x−2x=6−11
⟹−x=−5
⟹x=5
Sister's age = 5 years
Arvind's age= 5 + 8 = 13 years.
