Let the age of son be x and age of father be y.
Given 2x + y = 56
x + 2y = 82
On solving (1) and (2), we get
2x + y - 2x - 4y = 56 - 164
-3y = -108
y = 36.
Substitute y in any above equations, we get
2x + 36 = 56
2x = 20
x = 10
The age of the father is 36 and the age of son is 10 years.
hope it helpss : )
