Ben is 12 years older than Ishaan. Ben and Ishaan first met two years ago. Three years ago, Ben was 4 times as old as Ishaan.

Ben is 19 and Ishaan is 7.

If 3 years ago Ben was 4 times the age of Ishann, their ages could have been any of the following:

1. Ben is 4 and Ishaan is 1

2. Ben is 8 and Ishaan is 2

3. Ben is 12 and Ishaan is 3

4. Ben is 16 and Ishaan is 4

And so on.

Next add 3 to both ages, to show current age.

1. Ben is 7 and Ishaan is 4

2. Ben is 11 and Ishaan is 5

3. Ben is 15 and Ishaan is 6

4. Ben is 19 and Ishaan is 7

Ben is currently 12 years older than Ishaan. To find the difference, take Ben's age and subtract Ishaan's age.

1. 7 - 4 = 3

2. 11 - 5 = 6

3. 15 - 6 = 9

4. 19 - 7 = 12

Thus meaning Ben is 19 and Ishaan is 7.

I hope this helps!
