Answer:

In 28 years

Step-by-step explanation:

in 28 years you will be 42 and he will be 84 which is exactly double your age.

current ages: 14 & 56

age gap: 42 years

14 yrs+28yrs=42yrs

56yrs+28yrs=84yrs

84 yrs is double 42 years because 42 times two is 84.

equation: 2(x+14)=(x+56)

x=28 use substitution

2(28+14)=(28+56)

2(42)=84

84=84 ✔️
