Dear Student ,
First , you try to solve the question on your own , and then look into this solution :
Let us assume, present age of son is x ,
so present age of father will be 2x. ( as per the ques.)
20 years ago.
Age of son: (x-20)
Age of Father: (2x-20)
Now according to the question :
2x-20= 12(x-20)
x= 22
present age of father = 22*2= 44 years .
Hope this helps !
