Well 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 232...
The first step to discover the age (I'll assume that's your question) is subtract 232 from 500 500-232 equals 268. Divide this by 4 to get 67. Boy, that's a pretty old age. Hope this helps!

For this case, what we want to do is determine the age of the person.

For this, we define the following variable:

x: age of the person.

We write now the equation that models the problem

\(500 - 4x = 232
\)

Clearing x we have:

\(4x = 500-232\)

\(x = \frac{268}{4}

x = 67\)

Answer:

The age of the person is 67 years
