Best Answer

F=3S (a father is 3 times as old as his son)

F+15=2(S+15) (after 15 years the father will be twice as old as his sons age at that time)

F/3=S

F+15=2(F/3+15)

F+15=2(F/3)+2(15)

F+15=(2F)/3+30

F+15(-15)=(2F)/3+30(-15)

F=(2F)/3+15

F(3)=(2F)/3+15)(3)

3F=2F+45

3F(-2F)=2F+45(-2F)

F=45
