Let the present age of son be x.
Present age of father= 3+3x
After 3 years,
Age of son = 3+x
Age of father= 3+3+3x
=6+3x
6+3x = 10+ 2(3+x)
6+3x=10+6+2x
6+3x=16+2x
x=10
Present age of son = 10 years
Present age of father= 3+3x=3+30
=33years

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
The present age of a father's is 3 years more than three times the age of his son.
Three years hence,father's age will be 10 year more than twice the age of the son.
To Find :-
The present age of the father.
Solution :-
Let the son's present age be x years.
According to the question
Father's present age = (3x + 3) years
(3x + 3 + 3) = 2 (x + 3) + 10
3x + 6 = 2x + 16
x = 10.
Father's present age = (3x + 3)
= ((3 x 10) + 3) years
= 33 years.
Hence, father's present age is 33 years.
