Let, present age of Manoj = x years
x+12=3(x-4)
x+12= 3x-12
3x-x = 12+12
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
Therefore, Manoj's present age is 12 years.

- The present age of manoj.
Let the present age of Manoj be x
Age after 12 years = x + 12
Age 4 years ago = x - 4
As per the given condition
x + 12 = 3(x - 4)
x + 12 = 3x - 12
-2x = -12 - 12
-2x = -24
x = 12
