Step-by-step explanation:
Man's age today = M
Son's age today = S
M+6 = 3 (S + 6) => M = 3 S + 12
M - 3 = 9 (S - 3) => M = 9 S - 24
So 3 S + 12 = 9 S - 24
6 S = 36
Son's age = 12 years
Fathers age = M = 48 years

____________
Son = y
man = 9y
Now
____
son = y+3
man= 9y+3
6 years ago
__________
son = y +(3+9) = y+12
man= 3×(y+12) = 3y + 36
so, 9y+3+6 = 9y + 9 = 3y + 36
we have to find y.
9y + 9 = 3y + 36
9y = 3y +36-9 = 3y + 27
3y = 9y - 27
9y-3y = 3y+27-3y = 27=6y
y = 27÷6 = 4.5 years
three years ago
____________
son = 5
man = 5 × 9= 45
Now
____
son = 5+3=8
man= 45+3=48
