Shreya's present age: x
x+15=4*(x-15)
x+15=4x-60
x-4x=-60-15
-3x=-75
x=-75/-3
x=25

So the present age of Shreya is 25! Huzzah!

X is her present age
15+x=4×(15-x)
15+x=60-4x
-45=-5x
X=9 years

revanthnrajan: Uhhh.....It's wrong!
revanthnrajan: So according to you, in 15 years she would be 9+15=24 years old, and fifteen years ago she was -6 years old? -6*4=(-24)? How is this correct?
