Answer:

79 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say your age is x.

The problem says "500 reduced by 4 times my age is 184", so we convert this to math:

- "4 times my age" ⇒ 4 * x = 4x

- "500 reduced by" ⇒ 500 - (something)

- "500 reduced by 4 times my age" ⇒ 500 - 4x

- "is 184" ⇒ = 184

- "500 reduced by 4 times my age is 184" ⇒ 500 - 4x = 184

Now, we simply solve for x:

500 - 4x = 184

4x = 500 - 184 = 316

x = 79

Thus, you are 79 years old.

Hope this helps!
