An artifact is four times 4 times older than an antiuqe book. In 200 years the artifact will be 3 times older than the book. How old is the artifact now?

The present age of the artifact is 1,600 years  

Step-by-step explanation:  

let the present age of the artifact = x  

let the present age of the book, = y  

x = 4y equation (1)  

x + 200 = 3(y + 200) equation (2)  

x + 200 = 3y + 600  

substitute in the value of x into the equation;  

4y + 200 = 3y + 600  

4y - 3y = 600 - 200  

y = 400  

Then, x = 4 x 400

x = 1,600 years
