Answer 1

Hi there !!
Here's your answer

Let the son's age be x
Father is 30yrs older than son
So,
father's age = x + 30 years


Given,
In 12 years man will be 3 times as old as his son

After 12 years :
Son's age = x + 12 years
Man's age = x + 12 + 30 = x + 42 years

So,
the following balanced equation will be formed


3(x + 12) = (x + 42)

3x + 36 = x + 42

3x - x = 42 - 36

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Therefore,

son's age = x = 3 years
Man's age = x + 30 = 3 + 30 = 33 years

Thus,
The ages of Man and the son are 33 years and 3 years respectively

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there !!

Here's your answer

Let the son's age be x

Father is 30yrs older than son

So,

father's age = x + 30 years

Given,

In 12 years man will be 3 times as old as his son

After 12 years :

Son's age = x + 12 years

Man's age = x + 12 + 30 = x + 42 years

So,

the following balanced equation will be formed

3(x + 12) = (x + 42)

3x + 36 = x + 42

3x - x = 42 - 36

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Therefore,

son's age = x = 3 years

Man's age = x + 30 = 3 + 30 = 33 years

Thus,

The ages of Man and the son are 33 years and 3 years respectively
