Boy record = 25 feet 8 inches
Girl record = 19 feet 19 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 25 feet 8 inches / 19 feet 19 inches
Change the feet into inches
1 feet = 12 inches
25 feet = 25* 12 = 300 inches + 8 inches = 308 inches

19 feet = 19 * 12= 228 inches + 19 inches = 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 308 inches / 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 1.246 inches
Boy record = 1.246 Girl record
So
it is 1.246 times greater than girls record.

The mother's age is 8 times her son's age. After 6 years, the age of the mother will be 9/2 times her son's age. The present age
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

son = 6 mother = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother = m

son = s

m = 8s

m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)

so

2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)

16s + 12 = 9s + 54

16s - 9s = 54 - 12

7s = 42

s = 42/7 = 6 years old

so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old
