 \textbf {Hey there, here is the solution.}

.............................................................................................

Define the present age:

let the present age be x

.

Define the age 4 years ago:

4 years ago = x - 4

.

Define the age 12 years later:

12 years later = x + 12

.

Form equation and solve for x:

x + 12 = 5(x - 4)

x + 12 = 5x - 20

4x = 32

x = 8 years old

.

Answer: The present age is 8 years old
