Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Jasper's age = 43 years

Freya's age = 7

In n years, jasper will be 4 times as old as Freya

Let jasper = j

Freya = f

After n years :

j + n = 4 * f

J + n = 4 ( f + n)

43 + n = 4(4 + n)

43 + n = 16 + 4n

43 - 16 = 4n - n

27 = 3n

n = 27/3

n = 9

Jasper's age after n years :

43 + 9 = 52

Freya's age after n years :

4 + 9 = 13
