Answer:
Present age of Ravi is 5 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
- 15 years from now Ravi's age will be 4 times than his present age.
To find :-
- Ravi's present age.
Solution :-
Let the present age of Ravi be x years.
After 15 years,
- Age of Ravi = (x+15) years
★ 15 years from now Ravi's age will be 4 times than his present age.
According to the question:-
x+15 = 4x
→ x-4x = -15
→ -3x = -15
→ x = -15/-3
→ x = 5
Therefore, the present age of Ravi is 5 years.

Verification :-
- Present age of Ravi = 5 years
After 15 years,
Ravi's age will be = (5+15) = 20 years
According to the question ,
Ravi's age (after 15 years) = 4× Ravi's present age
→ 20 = 4×5
→ 20 = 20
Hence Verified !
