Answer:2 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
In 4 years Craston's age will be the same as Terrins age is now
Suppose the present of Craston's and Terrins are [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] respectively
According to the question
[tex]\Rightarrow x+4=y\\\Rightarrow y-x=4\quad \ldots(i)[/tex]
In 2 years Terrin will be twice as old as craston
[tex]\Rightarrow (y+2)=2(x+2)\\\Rightarrow y-2x=4-2\\\Rightarrow y-2x=2\quad \ldots(ii)\\[/tex]
Solving (i) and (ii) we get
[tex]x=2,y=6[/tex]
Thus, the present age of Craston and Terrins are [tex]2[/tex] and [tex]6[/tex]
