Answer 1

Mickey was 78 years old four years ago.

His age presently,

= Age given four years ago + years ago

= 78 + 4

= 82

Therefore, Mickey's present age is 82 years.

Answer 2

Answer: 82 years old

Given:

Mickey age (four years ago) = 78 years old

Solve:

"Four years ago" means that we need to go forward in time from the perspective when Mickey was four years ago.

Given age

78

Add 4 years of age

78 + 4 =
`\boxed{82\:years\: old}`
