Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

Larry's dad was 23 when he was born (37-14=23). So, to be twice his age, his dad would be 46, which would make Larry 23 years old. 23*2=46

The present age of Larry is [tex]23[/tex].

Given:

Larry was 14 years old and his father was 37.

Now Larry's father is twice as old as Larry

To find:

The present age of Larry.

Explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the present age of Larry.

Then the present age of Larry's father is [tex]2x[/tex].

The difference between their ages remains always the same. So,

[tex]2x-x=37-14[/tex]

[tex]x=23[/tex]

Therefore, the present age of Larry is [tex]23[/tex].
