My present age of my sister= x
assumed.
3 years before her age =
x-3.
My age 3 ters ago = 3tines my sister's age=
3(x-3).
Next year my sister'age =
x+1.
My age next year = 3(x-3) + 4 this twice sister's age
next year = 2(x+1).
So the required equation
is:
3(x-3)+4 = 2(x+1). We solve
this.
3x-9 +4= 2x+2
3x-2x =
2+9-4
x = 7.
So my sister' age
= 7.
My age = my age next year -1 = 3(x-3)+4 -1 = 3x-9+3 =
3x-6 = 7*3-6 = 15
My age = 15 and my sister's age =
7.
