Let h = Hannah's age.

Hannah is older than her sibling, and their ages are consecutive odd integers. Therefore, h = an odd number and the sibling's age =  h-2.
 
The sum of their ages is 92, therefore
h + (h-2) = 92
2h - 2 = 92

2h = 94
h = 47 years

Answer:
The equation to find Hannah's age is  2h - 2 = 92.
This yields Hannah's age as 47 years.

Find a number such that 10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number
Ivan

Answer:

the number is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

Let the unknown number be x

two third of the number is \frac{2}{3} x

10 less than two third the number becomes

\frac{2}{3}x-10

one fourth the number becomes \frac{1}{4}x

10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

\frac{2}{3}x-10=\frac{1}{4}x

We need to solve for x

LCD is 3*4 = 12

Multiply the whole equation by 12

\frac{2*12}{3}x-10*12=\frac{1*12}{4}x

8x - 120 = 3x

add 120 on both sides

8x = 3x + 120

Subtract 3x on both sides

5x = 120

divide by 5 on both sides

x= 24
