Hey mate !!
Answer:
- present age of father is 66 years
- present age of his daughter is 22 years !!
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let the present age of Father be x and that of his daughter be y
Given , the present age of the father is 3 times that of his daughter
x = 3y ---- ( i )
and after 22 years ,
Father's age will be x + 22
and daughter's age will be y + 22
Given , 22 years he will be only twice that of his daughter
x + 22 = 2 ( y + 22 )
x + 22 = 2y + 44
x - 2y = 22 --- ( ii )
From i in ii
3y - 2y = 22
y = 22
So, x =3y = 3 ( 22 ) = 66
So, the Present age of father is 66 years !!
