Answer 1

Answer:

9 years and 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of kritika be x

Age after 12 yrs = x + 12

Age 4 yrs ago = x - 4

Given

$x + 12 = 4(x - 4)$

$x + 12 = 4x - 16$

$3x = 28$

$x = 9 \frac{1}{3} yrs$

$x = 9yrs \: 4 \: mnts$

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:

9 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kritika’s present age be x.

 x+12 = 4(x-4)

 x+12 = 4x-16

 12+16 = 4x-x

 28 = 3x

 28/3 = x

Therefore, Kritika’s present age is = 9 1/3
