Alright, lets get started.

The ages of all four sisters will be = x, x+2, x+4, x+6

As per given in question, two times of youngest sister age exceeds the oldest sister age by 30 means

2x - 30 = (x+6)

Simplifying the equation

2x - (x+6) = 30

2x - x - 6 = 30

x = 36

So this is the age of youngest sister.

So, age of oldest sister will be x + 6 = 36 + 6 = 42

Hene the age of oldest sister is 42 years.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)

1. ) 1 thru 9 are both natural numbers and whole numbers. 0 is a whole number, but not a natural number.

2.) 6...it is a natural number because it is a counting number and it is whole, it is a whole number and it is an integer as well. It is also rational because it can be turned into a fraction 6/1.

3.) -2 is a rational number because it can be turned into a fraction -2/1, but it is not a whole number because it contains a negative.

4.) That number would be 0
