Let Cameron be x years old now.
-
<u>Now:</u>
Cameron = x
Uncle =3x
-
<u>4 years ago:</u>
Cameron = x - 4
Uncle = 3x - 4
-
<u>4 years ago, Uncle is 4 times older:</u>
3x - 4 = 4(x - 4)
-
<u>Find x:</u>
3x - 4 = 4(x - 4)
3x - 4 = 4x - 16
4x - 3x = 16 - 4
x = 12
-
<u>Find the age:</u>
Cameron = x = 12
