Answer: 16 years

Explanation:

Let's Bo's age be represented by x.

Since Bo' sister Anna is 3/4 his age minus 1 year and she is 11 years old, this can be formed into an equation as:

(3/4 × x) - 1 = 11

3/4x - 1 = 11

3/4x = 11 + 1

3/4x = 12

Multiply both side by 4/3

x = 12 × 4/3

x = 16

Bo's age is 16 years
