A Correct answer
Explanation

Let Ram's age be R, father be F. F = 3R. (F-11) = 4(R-11). 3R-11 = 4R-44. R = 33.

AI explanation

Let Ram's present age be x years, making his father's age 3x years. Eleven years ago, their ages were (x - 11) and (3x - 11), so the equation is 3x - 11 = 4(x - 11). Solving this gives 3x - 11 = 4x - 44, which means x = 33.
