Let, the present age of yours = x

present age of your brother = 4x

After 6 years, 2(x+6) = 4x+6

2x+12=4x+6

2x=6

x=3, 4x=12

So, your brother is 12 years of age now.

Let my present age be x.

My brother is 4 times as old = 4*x = 4x

Six years from now:

My age would be   x + 6

Brother's age would be:  4x + 6

Brother would be twice my age.

4x + 6 = 2*(x +6)

4x + 6 = 2*x + 2*6

4x + 6 = 2x + 12

4x - 2x = 12 - 6

2x = 6

x = 6 / 2

x = 3

Age of brother = 4x = 4*3 = 12

Brother = 12 years old now.

Hope this explains it.

Decrease 18•4 in the ratio 3:8
andrezito [222]

Answer:

6.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are supposed to decrease the number in the ratio 3:8 or 3/8 you take the small number that is 3 to be the numerator and 8 to be the denominator then multiply it by 18.4.

That is 18.4×3:8= 184/10×3/8=6.9

So to decrease a number you multiply it with the smallest number as the numerator and the big number as the denominator

To increase a number you multiply it with the big number as the numerator and the small number to be the denominator
