Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Let son's age = x

Two years ago son's age= x-2.

His Father's age at that time = 3(x-2).

Present age of Father = 3x-6+2=3x-4

Two years hence father's age=3x-4+2=3x-2.

Two years hence son's age = x+2.

Given :-5*(x+2)=2*(3x-2)

5x + 10= 6x - 4

10+4=6x-5x

14=x

SON'S PRESENT AGE : 14 years.

FATHER'S PTESENT AGE: 38 years.
