Answer:

-\frac{16}{17}\\-0.94117

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\left(8\right)}}\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}=\frac{17}{32}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3=17\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3\\2\left(9+3\right)=24\\2\left(9+3\right)\\\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:9+3=12\\=2\cdot \:12\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:12=24\\=24-4-3

\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:24-4-3=17\\=\frac{17}{4\cdot \:8}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:4\cdot \:8=32\\=\frac{17}{32}\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}\\=-\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{17}{32}}\\\mathrm{Divide\:fractions}:\quad \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{a\cdot \:d}{b\cdot \:c}\\=-\frac{1\cdot \:32}{2\cdot \:17}\\Refine\\=-\frac{32}{2\cdot \:17}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:17=34\\=-\frac{32}{34}

\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:2\\=-\frac{16}{17}\\\mathrm{Decimal:\quad }\:-0.94117

Archy [21]

Answer:

Ravi's age after 15 years = x+15

Ravi's age = 4 times his present age = 4x

According to question -

15 + x = 4x

=> 15 = 4x-x = 3x

=> 15 = 3x

=> x = 15/3

=> x = 5

Thus , Ravi's present age is 5 years.
