Iqra is 4 times as old as her daughter. After 12 years, the sum of their ages will be 69 years. What is the present age of Iqra?

39 years

32 years

36 years

None of these

Let daughter's age be x → Iqra's age = 4x

After 12 years:

→ Daughter's age = x + 12, Iqra's age = 4x + 12

→ Total = (x + 12) + (4x + 12) = 5x + 24 = 69

→ 5x = 45 → x = 9

→ Iqra’s age = 4 × 9 = 36 years
