A man is \(24\) years older than his son. In two years, his age will be twice the age of his son. What is the present age of his son?
Answer: C
Let present age of the son \(= x \) years
Then, present age the man \(=(x+24)\) years
Given that, in \(2\) years, man's age will be twice the age of his son
\(\Rightarrow\) \((x+24)+2=2(x+2)\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(x=22\)
