Answer:
44 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Jasper be j years old now.
<u>Now</u><u>:</u>
Jasper➣ j
Simon ➣ j/2
<u>1</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>years</u><u> </u><u>ago</u><u>:</u>
Jasper➣ j -12
Simon➣ j/2 -12
Given that Simon's age=⅕(Jasper's age),
j/2 -12= ⅕(j -12)
<em>Multiply</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>,</em>
2.5j -60= j -12
2.5j -j= 60 -12
<em>Simplify</em><em>:</em>
1.5j= 48
<em>÷</em><em>1.5</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>:</em>
j= 48 ÷1.5
<em>Simplify:</em>
j= 32
<u>12 years time:</u>
Jasper➣ j +12
Thus, Jasper's age
= 32 +12
= 44
Hey there,
380 miles = 14 gallons
1 miles = 14 / 380
= 7 / 190
418 miles = 7 / 190 x 418
= 15.4 gallons.
Hope this helps :))
