  1. Step-by-step explanation:

    let the present ages of A and B be 16x and 7x respectively.

    After 12 years ;

    A’s age = 16x+12

    B’s age = 7x+12

    A.T.Q.

    16x+12=2(7x+12)

    16x+12=14x+24

    16x-14x= 24-12

    2x= 12

    x= 6

    A’S PRESENT AGE= 16x = 16(6)= 96 years

    B’S PRESENT AGE= 7x = 7(6)=42 years

    thankyou
