  1. Answer:

    let, sum of the ages of the 3 children be = x years

    age of father is 3x years

    after 3 years,

    their sum of ages = x + 3 years

    age of father = 3x + 3 years

    A/Q,

    3x +3 = 2 ( x + 3 )

    = 3x +3 = 2x + 6

    3x – 2x = 6 – 3

    x = 3

    there for, present age of father is 3 × 3 = 9 years
