Given :-
→ Let Dilip's son's age 2 years ago be x years.
Then, Dilip's age 2 years ago = ( 3x ) years
Thus , the son's age 2 years hence (x + 4) years.
Dilip's age 2 years hence (3x + 4) years.
→ 2 ( 3x + 4 ) = 5 ( x + 4 )
→ 6x + 8 = 5x +20
→ x = 12.
∴ Dilip's son's age 2 years ago = 12 years and Dilip's age 2 years ago = 36 years.
∴ son's present age = 14 years, and
Dilip's present age = 38 years.
Thank You!
