Question

A woman’s age is three years more than twice her son’s age .the sum of their ages is 84. How old is the son ?

Answer 1

women age = 3 + 2 S (sons age) (three times more twice her sons age)
their age sum is 84
so women age + son age = 84
lets substitute the value of mothers age
3+2S+S=84
3S=84-3
3S=81
S=27
so sons age is 27

Answer 2

The women’s age plus the sons would be 27
