Answer:

Let Neha's age be x,

Then according to question,

Neha's father is 49 years old. He is 4 years older than three time Neha's age

49 = 4 + 3x

49 = 4 + 3x

3x = 49-4

45 = 3x

x = 15

Thus, Neha is 15years old.

Answer:

Step - 1: Writing mathematical equation according to question

Let Laxmi’s age be x,

Then according to question,

Laxmi’s father is 49 years old. He is 4 years older than three time Laxmi’s age

49 = 4 + 3x

Step - 2: Finding Laxmi’s age

⇒ 49 = 4 + 3x

⇒ 45 = 3x

⇒ x = 15

Hence, Laxmi’s age is 15 years.
