Answer 2

Let Present age of her sister Manya be x years.

Then, Age of Anu will be (12 + x) years.

⠀⠀ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀⠀⠀⠀

☆ ACCORDING TO GIVEN QUESTION :

• After 4 years, Anu’s age will be equal to thrice the age of her sister Manya.

⠀▪︎⠀ Age of Manya after 4 years = (x + 4) years

⠀▪︎ ⠀Age of Anu after 4 years = (x + 16) years

Therefore,

(Age of Anu) = 3(Age of Manya)

⇢ (x + 16) = 3(x + 4)

⇢ x + 16 = 3x + 12

⇢ x - 3x = 12 - 16

⇢ - 2x = - 4

⇢ x = 4/2

⇢ x = 2

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀⠀⠀⠀

Therefore, Their Present Age will be :

⠀▪︎⠀Present Age of Manya, x = 2 years

⠀▪︎⠀Present Age of Anu, (x + 12) = (2 + 12) = 14 years

∴ Hence, Present age of Anu and Maya is 14 years & 2 years respectively.
