Answer 1

A says to B I was four times as old as you were when I was as old as you are. If the sum of their present ages is 33 then ,the present ages of A and B are

Step-by-step explanation:

When B was y years old then A was 4y

Then later B became 4y years old then A would get older:

A= 4y+3y =7y , and B= 4x,

A=7y years + B=4y years= 33 years ,

Hence after solving this equation y = 3

Therefore, A's age = 7x3=21 years and B's age = 4x3 =12 years
