Question

a man is 24 years older than son.in two years time, his age will be twice the age of his son. find the persent age of the son.​

Answer 1

22 years

Explanation:

suppose his present age is x years

After 2 years, father's age (x+24+2) years and son will be (x+2). now x = 22 years is the answer if u solve it.

Answer 2

Ⲁⲛ⳽ⲱⲉⲅ:

The present age of the son is 22 years .

Ⲋⲟⳑⳙⲧⳕⲟⲛ :

Let us assume that the present age of the son is x years . Therefore according to question, we can say that the present age of his father will be x + 24 years. Then after two years, the age of the man will be twice the age of his son , i.e:

`\quad\dashrightarrow\quad \sf {(x + 24) + 2 = 2 ( x + 2 ) }`

`\quad\dashrightarrow\quad \sf { x + 26 = 2x + 4}`

`\quad\dashrightarrow\quad \sf {2x -x = 26 - 4 }`

`\quad\dashrightarrow\quad \underline{\sf {x = 22 }}`

Hence, the present age of the son is 22 years.
