Let the woman's Present age be X
Then son's present age will be ( X- 30)
15 years ago
Woman was ( X - 15)
Son was (X-30) - 15 = X-45
But
ACQ
W = 2 (S)........ (15 years ago situation)
(X-15) = 2 (X-45)
X-15 = 2X - 90
X - 2X = - 90 + 15
- X = - 75
Multiplying both sides by (-)
X = 75
So the present ages are
Woman = 75 years
Son = 75 - 30 = 45 years
