Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Anand = x

Sharma = x + 3

6 years ago

Anand = x - 6

Sharma = (x + 3) - 6

= x + 3 - 6

= x - 3

Sharma age = 4 (x - 6)

Six years ago Sharma's age was four times Anand's age.

x + 3 = 4(x - 6)

x - 3 = 4x - 24

x - 4x = -24 + 3

- 3x = - 21

x = - 21/-3

x = 7

Anand = x = 7 years

Sharma = x + 3

= 7 + 3

= 10 years
