I'll give you a question, please answer with step-by-step reasoning process.
After five years, Ron will be four times as old as Maurice. If Ron's age now is 43, how old is Maurice now?

7
If Ron is 43 now, he will be 43 + 5 = 48 years old in five years.

After five years, Ron will be four times as old as Maurice, meaning Maurice will be 48 / 4 = 12 years old then.

Currently, Maurice is 12 - 5 = 7 years old.

.

So, the final answer is 7
