Answer:Mark Is 9 years old; Christine is 5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Present age

LET mark age be x

Christine be x-4 yrs

In 3 yrs Time

Mark will be x+3 yrs old

Christine will be (x -4 +3) = x-1 years old

Also, In 3 years time

Christine = 2/3 Mark

such that

x-1 = 2/3(x+3)

x -1= 2x+6 / 3

3x -3= 2x+6

3X--2X = 6+3

=X=9

Mark Is 9 years old

Christine is x -4 = 9-4=5 years old
