When Bob is 3 0 years old, Andy is 1 5 .
It takes 3 0 years for Bob to become age 6 0 . By then, Andy will be 1 5 + 3 0 = 4 5 years old.
People who aren't paying attention may choose 30, accidentally thinking that age is a ratio relationship. It's not possible for 30 years to go by for one person but only 15 years for someone else.
If Bob is 30 yrs and is twice as old as andy then Andy = 1 5 y r s
How much time will it take for Bob to be 60 years?
6 0 − 3 0 = 3 0 So 30 years.
While Andy in 30 yrs time will be:
1 5 + 3 0 = 4 5
So his age will be 45 yrs.

Bob is 30 years old, and twice as old as Andy. so if Bob is x years old Andy is 2 x years old.
Bob is 30. so Andy is 2 3 0 =15 years old.
now, difference between Bob & Andy's age is = 3 0 − 1 5 = 1 5 years old
so, if Bob is 60 ,Andy will be = 6 0 − 1 5 = 4 5 years old
