Stan is 9.
In 3 years time, Stan will be 12. 3 years ago, Clem was 24 (2 x 12) In 3 years Clem will be 27 (3 x 9 ie. Stan's present age)

[dzug]

So what age is Clem now if he was 24 3 years ago and will be 27 in 3 years time?

[juliefer]

Stan is 12. Three years ago Clem was 30, twice the age Stan will be in 3 years time (15). In three years time Clem will be 36, three times Stan's current age.
