THE GRAND ANSWER :
Panna's age now = x
Panna's age 4 years back = x - 4
Panna's age after 8 years = x + 8
Now, Panna's age after 8 years is three times her age 4 years back
Therefore,
Panna's age after 8 years = 3 × (Age 4 years back)
x + 8 = 3 × (x - 4)
x + 8 = 3x - 12
8 + 12 = 3x - x
20 = 2x
x = 10
So, Panna's present age is 10 years

Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Panna be x years.
4 years ago:
Her age was x-4 years.
After 8 years:
Her age will be x+8 years.
Panna's age after 8 years is three times her age 4 years back.
x+8 is three times of x-4
x+8 = 3(x-4)
x+8 = 3x-12
3x-x = 12+8
2x=20
x=20/2
x=10.
Hence, Panna's age is 10 years.
