Answer: Well, when the wise man said "500 reduced by 4 times my age is 200." A wise women came up to him and responded " Your age is 75"
Explanation:
If 500 reduced by 4 times your age is 200, then the equation
500 − 4x = 200
Take away 200 from both sides of the equation.
Add 4x to both sides of the equation.
Divide both sides of the equation by 4, you get 75 = x.
So, if 500 reduced by 4 times your age is 200, then you are 75.
