Answer:
15 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let harry's age be x and his father's be y.
then, presently: x=1/3y (i)
but after three years,
Harry's age= x+3 and his father's = y+3 = 45
thus y+3 = 45.
so y = 42.
so, applying this to (i), we get
x = 1/3*(42)
x = 14.
thus one year from now, Harry's age will be
x + 1 = 14+1 = 15 !
easy :)
