Answer 1

his age is 56 years
let his son's age be x years.
then,
2x+6=56
or,2x=56-6
or,x=50/2
or,x=25
Hence the age of his son is 25 years.

Answer 2

$\bold{ \underline{ given \: that \: \: age \: of \: raman \: = 56 \: years \: \: \: \: \: - - - - - - : ( \: 1 \: )}}$



Age of Raman if 6 years more than twice of age of his son


So,




2( Age of his son ) + 6 = age of Raman




$\bold{ \underline{ \:p utting \: value \: from \: \: ( i ) , }}$

⏩ 2( age of his son ) + 6 = 56

⏩ 2( age of his son ) = 56 - 6

⏩ age of his son = 50 / 2

⏩ age of his son = 25 years
