Answer:
Let the age of man be x
and the age of his son be y
According to the question:
After 6 years :
(x+6)=3(y+6)
⇒x−3y=12⟶(i)
Three years ago :
x−3=9(y−3)
⇒x−3=9y−27
⇒x−9y=−24⟶(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii),
6y=36
⇒y=6
Putting value of y in equation (i),
x−3xy=12
∴x=12+18
x=30
∴ Age of man =30 years.
Age of son =6 years
I hope this helps!
