Answer: jackson is 12
explanation:
let the age be represented by x
jackson is 2 times older than shelly so
2x is jackson’s age and x is shelly’s age
since the sum of their ages is 18 then:
2x + x = 18
solve:
3x = 18 ➔ divide by 3 on both sides
x = 6
so now we know shelly is 6
jackson is 2 times older than her so:
2(6) = 12
80/100 x 30 = 24 because you just multiply percents
