Hey there!
Let the present age of father be x
Then the present age of son will be 55-x
Present age of father = Later age
If,later son age =x
thenfather age =x+2x-55
=3x-55
The sum of ages =93
=>x+3x-55=93
4x=93+55
4x=148
x=148/4
x=37
The present age of father =37
The present age of son =55-37=18
Sum of ages at present =37+18=55
Later,
Son age =18+19=37
Father age =37+19=56
Sum of ages =37+56=93
∴The present age of father =37
The present age of son =18
hope helped!
