Let the age of Vera be 'x' years

So the age of Linda is '2x' years

Now Tanya is 4 less than 4 times Linda

So age of Tanya = 4(2x) -4 = 8x -4 years

So total age of Vera , Linda & Tanya

= x + 2x + 8x - 4

= 11x - 4

But it is 2 less than 9 times Vera's age

11x - 4 = 9x + 2

11x - 9x = 4+2

2x = 6

x = 3

So Vera's age = 3 years

Linda's age = 2(3) = 6 years

Tanya's age = 8x - 4 = 8(3) - 4 = 24-4=20 years

Tanya is 20 years old.

3 more than a number then divided the result by 8
ziro4ka [17]

We are given statement : 3 more than a number then divided the result by 8.

We need to write an algebraic expression for it.

Let us assume unknown number be n.

3 more than n = (n+3).

Now, we need to divide that result (n+3) by 8.

So, we would get (n+3) divided by 8 = \frac{n+3}{8}.

<h3>Therefore, final expression is \frac{n+3}{8}.</h3>
