Lets consider SAM's age is 'x'  and Hank's age is 'y'
So as per given data Sam's age is 5/3 times of Hank's age
so x = 5/3 * y
3x = 5y --> equation 1
 and also sum of their ages is 24
so, x + y = 24
we need to find Hank's age (y)
so x = 24 - y
Now replace x value in equation 1
3(24-y) = 5y
72-3y = 5y
72 = 3y+5y
8y= 72
y= 72/8
y = 9 years.

So the Hank's age is 9 years

If b is between a and c then ab+bc=ac
erma4kov [3.2K]
That's false. Take the numbers 1, 3, and 5.
Let a = 1, b = 3, and c = 5.
ab + bc = ac
3 + 15 = 5
18 ≠ 5
Since 18 does not equal 5, this is false. If you were to use the distributive property on ab + bc = ac, you would get
b(a+c) = ac, which doesn't even make sense.
Have a nice day! :)
