Monika will be 8 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 look at the assumptions.
- Let us suppose that Sheela is x years old.
-While Monika is = 3 times as Sheela. Meaning, 3x
Step 2:
-If Monika is 3x, i.e. 12 years old.
Then x = 4
-How so?
-Its simple, you divide current age of 12 years by the value of how many times Monika is older.
so, 12/3 = 4
Step 3: So how old will Monika be when she is twice as old as Sheela?
If Monika is currently 4, when she will be double she will be 8 years old.
