Equations

Let's call

x   = Sam's current age

Since Sam's mother is twice as old as Sam:

2x = Sam's mother current age

x + 12 = Sam's age in 12 years

2x - 12 = Sam's mother age 12 years ago

These two last expressions are equal:

x + 12 = 2x - 12

Subtracting x and adding 12:

x = 24

2x = 48

Sam is 24 years old and his mother is 48 years old.
