    Let x be the age of the brother, then:

    Now:

    x = brother

    2x = sister

    4x = father

    In 22 years:

    (x+22) = brother

    (4x+22) = father

    4x+22 = 2 (x+22)

    4x+22 = 2x + 44

    4x-2x = 44 - 22

    2x = 22

    x = 11 years old (brother now)

    11*2=22 years old (sister now).
