Detailed Solution

Given, after 12 years from present age, Manoj will be thrice as old as he was four years ago.
Let the present age of Manoj be x.
According to the question,

x + 12 = 3 (x - 4)

.
Solve the equation to get x.

x + 12 = 3 (x - 4)

x + 12 = 3 x - 12

3 x - x = 12 + 12

2 x = 24

x = 12

Hence, the present age of Manoj is 12 years.
So, option 4 is correct.
