Answer 1

Let age of Lakshmi be x years.

We are given, 3x + 4 = 49

          so. x = 15

Hence, Lakshmi is 15 years old.

Answer 2

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Lakshmis age be x.

Lakshmis fathers age = 4 + 3* Lakshmis age

On substitution we get:

49= 4 + 3*x

49=4 + 3x

49 - 4 =3x

45= 3x

45/3 = x

15= x

Therefore Lakshmis age is 15
