Answer:

Let's use "K" to represent Kevin's current age, and "M" to represent his mother's current age.

According to the problem, if you triple Kevin's age, the result is 1 less than his mother's age:

3K = M - 1

We can simplify this equation by adding 1 to both sides:

3K + 1 = M

This equation tells us that if we add 1 to three times Kevin's age, we get his mother's age. We can use this equation to solve for Kevin's age if we know his mother's age, or we can use it to solve for his mother's age if we know Kevin's age.
