Let Ramu's present age be x years.
\(\therefore\) Ramu's age before 4 years = (x - 4) years
Ramu's age after 12 years = (x + 12) years
\(\therefore\) x+12 = 3(x-4)
\(\Rightarrow\) x+12...

Let present ages of P and Q are respectively 3x and 8x.
After 6 years, age of P = 3x+6,
age of Q = 8x+6.
According to given condition,
\(\frac{3x+6}{8x+6}=\frac49\)
\(\Rightarrow\) 9 (3x+6) =...
