He made his first mistake in step 5. He used the statement he was trying to prove as a reason.
hope that helps
Ken:
Ken's Age = 18
Elizabeth:
Elizabeth's Age = 2/3 x Ken's age
Elizabeth's Age = 2/3 x 18
Elizabeth's Age = 12
Clint:
-Note: At Clint's <em>next</em> birthday. So we need to subtract 1 from the age.
Clint's Age = (2 x Elizabeth's Age) - 1
Clint's Age = (2 x 12) - 1
Clint's Age = 24 - 1
Clint's Age = 23 right now
Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll solve this with a system of equations. The first equation says that K's shares plus I's shares total 270; therefore,
K + I = 270
The second equation talks about the ratios of their shares.
2/5 I = 1/2 K We'll solve for K by multiplying both sides by 2:
4/5 I = K Now we'll sub that in for K to the first equation:
and
and
Now we'll solve for I, the number of shares that Ikedi has. Multiply both sides by 5 to get
then divide both sides by 9 to get

Ikedi has 150 shares. Sub that back into the first equation to solve for K:
K + 150 = 270 so
K = 120
