Answer:
24 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Malvin's age be x.
- x / 2
- x / 2 + 5 = 5x / 10 [ By taking the L.C.M.]
- ( 5x / 10 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) = 5x / 30 [ Multiply with the reciprocal of 3 ]
- ( 5x / 30 ) * 2 = 5x / 15
Now let's solve the equation,
5x / 15 = 8
5x = 8 * 15
5x = 120
x = 120 / 5
x = 24
Therefore, Malvin is 24 years old.

1 people eat 3/8 pound of potato salad lets reoresent it：
x=3/8

7(3/8)=n
21/8=n
n=2 5/8
I think you count the squares in the middle or radius ?
The answer is 22 because in order to divide fractions (in this case we would have 11 as a fraction), you need to multiply one fraction by the reciprocal of the other fraction (the flipped form of a fraction).
To find this, we would do 
* 
.
This would come to be 
, and when simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 9, you get 22.
