Step-by-step explanation:

At present, Father is 3 times as old as Son (given)

Let Son's age = x. Then, Father's age = 3x.

15 years hence, Father will be 2 times as old as Son (given)

15 years hence, their ages be 3x+15 and x+15

∴3x+15=2(x+15)

∴3x+15=2x+30

∴3x-2x=30-15

∴x=15

∴ Father's present age=45 years and Son's present age=15 years

After 15 years: father's age 45+15 = 60

and son's age : 15 + 15 = 30

All the best
