If your ages now are 57 and 4 than in x years you(G) and your granddaughter(D) will be:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "G = 57+x
\n" ); document.write( "D = 4+x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "At the same time, after x years, you should be 3 times older :
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "G=3D
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "57+x=3(4+x), this is equation you're looking for. \n" ); document.write( "
