Answer:

  • George is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

George is g and Mike is m

  • g = 2m - 5
  • g + m = 31

Substitute g in the second equation

  • 2m - 5 + m = 31
  • 3m - 5 = 31
  • 3m = 36
  • m = 12

Finding g

  • g = 2*12 - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19

Ok
So when you multiply by a fraction just multiply top by top and bottom by bottom
So top by top is 2 by 4 so 8
And bottom by bottom is 3 by 5 which is 15
So answer is 8/15
Hope this helps and don’t forget to mark as brainliest if you thought it was most helpful :)
