Answer:

Half the age of Carlos four years ago is 2 years more than one-third his current age.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) =  \frac{1}{3}x + 2

Let x represent the present age of Carlos.

Four years ago, Carlos was x-4 years.

Half his age four years ago is ½(x-4)

Two years more than one-third his current age is ⅓x+2
