The present age of Ramesh = 12 years
The present age of Rita = 2 years
Let the number of years after which Ramesh's age is 3 times of Rita's be x
Therefore, after x years,
(12 + x) = 3(2 + x)
=> 12 + x = 6 + 3x
=> 12-6 = 3x - x
=> 6 = 2x
=> x = 6/2
=> x = 3
Therefore, after 3 years Ramesh's age will be thrice the age of Rita's.
