Question

after 12 years, Kamlesh shall be 3 times as old as he was 4 years ago . find his present age​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let your present age be x years.

After 12 years it will be x + 12.

Given that I shall be 3 times as old I was 4 years ago.

x + 12 = 3(x - 4)

x + 12 = 3x - 12

3x - x = 12 + 12

2x = 24

x = 12.

Therefore Your present age = 12 years.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

Present age of Kamlesh  = 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

After 12 years, Kamlesh shall be 3 times as old as he was 4 years ago

To find,

The present age of Kamlesh

Solution:

Let 'x' be the present age of Kamlesh

Age of Kamlesh after 12 years = x+12

Age of Kamlesh 4 years ago = x-4

Since age of Kamlesh is after 12 years is 3 times as old as he was 4 years ago

x+12 = 3(x-4)

x+12 = 3x -12

12 +12 = 3x-x

24 = 2x

x = 12

∴Present age of Kamlesh  = 12 years
