X would be 196. All you have to do is divide 5/7 one each side of the equation and you would get x = 196. I hope this helped and make sure to make this the brainliest answer :)

Jane is 5 times older than her sister. In 3 years, Jane’s sister will be 1/4 her age. Find the ages now

Korolek [52]

The present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let the present age of Jane be "x"

Let the present age of her sister be "y"

<em><u>Jane is 5 times older than her sister</u></em>

present age of Jane = 5(present age of her sister)

x = 5y ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>In 3 years, Jane’s sister will be 1/4 her age</u></em>

Age of sister after 3 years = 3 + y

Age of jane after 3 years = 3 + x

Age of sister after 3 years = 1/4(age of jane after 3 years)

$3 + y = \frac{1}{4}(3 + x)$

Substitute eqn 1 in above equation

$3 + y = \frac{1}{4}(3 + 5y)\\\\12 + 4y = 3 + 5y\\\\5y - 4y = 12 - 3\\\\y = 9$

Substitute y = 9 in eqn 1

x = 5(9)

x = 45

Thus present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
