Answer:
age is 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the present age to be X years.
So the age 4 years before will be ( X-4) years.
The age after 14 years will be ( X+14 ) years.
According to the given question after 14 years the age will be 3 times the age which was 4 years back.
Now lets frame the equation,
( X +14 ) = 3 × ( X - 4 )
X + 14 =3X - (3 × 4)
X + 14 = 3X -12
14 +12 =3X -X
26 =2X
13=X
So the current age is 13 years.
Hope this helps :)
