16 * 3 = 48
and
16 + 3 = 19
Your mistake was in this part 9 x 1/100 . After the decimal point the place value starts with tenths so you should write 9 x 1/10 .
Place values
Before the decimal
point
3 ones = 3 x 1
0 tens = 0 x 10
1 hundreds = 1 x 100
After the decimal
point
9 tenths = 9 x 1/10
0 hundredths = 0 x 1/100
3 thousandths= 3 x 1/1000
1 x 100 + 0 x 10 + 3 x 1 + 9 x 1/10 + 0 x 1/100 + 3 x 1/1000
100 + 0 + 3 + 0.9 + 0 + 0.003
100 + 3 +
0.9 + 0.003 = 103.903

Hence:

54,000 if the column before is 5 or more, you round up
Jan's age =
years
Sister's age =
Step-by-step explanation:
Jan's age = x years
Sister's age = 2x years
Brother's age = 3x years
According to the given condition:
x + 2x + 3x = 29
6x = 29
x = 29/6
x =
years
2x = 
Therefore,
Jan's age =
years
Sister's age =
