Answers
Given that 3 years from now, thrice her age will be 4 times the sum of her brother's age ago. x = 13. Therefore the present age of Meera = 13 years.
Let the age of Meera be x.
Let the age of her twin brothers be y.
Given that Meera is now 10 years older than her twin brothers.
x = y + 10 ----- (1)
3 years hence:
The age of Meera = x + 3.
The age of her twin brother = y + 3.
Given that 3 years from now, thrice her age will be 4 times the sum of her brother's age ago.
3(x + 3) = 4(2(y + 3)
3x + 9 = 4(2y + 6)
3x + 9 = 8y + 24
3(y + 10) + 9 = 8y + 24
3y + 30 + 9 = 8y + 24
3y + 39 = 8y + 24
3y = 8y + 24 - 39
3y = 8y - 15
3y - 8y = -15
-5y = -15
y = 3
Substitute y = 3 in (1), we get
x = y + 10
x = 3 + 10
x = 13.
Therefore the present age of Meera = 13 years.
