let the present age be X
so, after 12 years,
age=X+12
it is mentioned that after 12 u will be 3 times than 4 years ago.
4years ago= X-4
so,
3(X-4)=X+12
3X -12=X+12
3X-X=12+12
2X=24
X=24÷2
X=12
so ur present age is 12
so, after 12 years,
age=X+12
it is mentioned that after 12 u will be 3 times than 4 years ago.
4years ago= X-4
so,
3(X-4)=X+12
3X -12=X+12
3X-X=12+12
2X=24
X=24÷2
X=12
so ur present age is 12
