Let the present ages of the father as a years and that of his son’s age as b years.
According to question
After 6 years, the man’s age will be years and son’s age will be years.
So, the equation is
……. (i)
Also again from the question it’s given as,
Before 3 years, the age of the man was years and the age of son’s was years.
Furthermore, the relation between their 3 years ago is given below
……. (ii)
Therefore, by solving (i) and (ii), we get the solution
Using cross-multiplication, we get
,
⇒,
Hence, the present age of the man is 30 bears and the present age of son is 6 bears.
