Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the present age of the father and son is 60 years.
Let the present age of father be x years. So, the son's age is 60 - x.
After 15 years, father's age will be (x +15) yrs
the son's age will be (60 - x + 15) = (75 - x. ) yrs
After 15 years the father age will be twice of his son's age
x + 15 = 2 (75 - x)
∴ x + 15 = 150 - 2x
∴ x + 2x = 150 - 15
∴ 3x = 135
∴ x = 135/3
∴ x = 45.
The father's present age is 45 years.
And the son's present age is 60 - 45 = 15 years
