Given:

Ram's present age is 6 years less than Bhim's age.

After 3 years, Bhim's age will be twice that of Ram.

Formula used:

Let Ram's present age be R and Bhim's present age be B.

B = R + 6

B + 3 = 2(R + 3)

Calculation:

B = R + 6

B + 3 = 2(R + 3)

⇒ R + 6 + 3 = 2R + 6

⇒ R + 9 = 2R + 6

⇒ 9 - 6 = 2R - R

⇒ 3 = R

∴ The correct answer is option (4).
