J + t = 30
j = 2t - 3
2t - 3 + t = 30
3t - 3 = 30
3t = 30 + 3
3t = 33
t = 33/3
t = 11 <=== tritt's age is 11
j = 2t - 3
j = 2(11) - 3
j = 22 - 3
j = 19 <== jan's age is 19
I searched up it said 1,295,996,310
1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187, 6561, 19683, 59049, 177147, 531441, 1594323.
If this is the proper sequence pattern, we add up all the numbers to get a sum.
The total sum is 2391457.
The answer is 78. This is because you change 8 2/3 into a improper fraction which is 26/3. Then do 26/3×9/1. You should cross cancel so cancel out 3 and change it into 1 and change 9 into 3. So now your problem is 26×3=78.
