Sarah is 8 years older than Tanya. Sarah's age is also 5/4 of Tanya's age. How old is each person?

1 answer:

3 0

S = t + 8
s = 5/4t

t + 8 = 5/4t
8 = 5/4t - t
8 = 5/4t - 4/4t
8 = 1/4t
8 * 4 = t
32 = t <=== tanya's age

s = t + 8
s = 32 + 8
s = 40 <== sarah's age

Given :difference between 2 whole number = 66ratio of the 2 whole number =2:5Let:1 whole number be 2x2 whole number be 5xA/Q

difference between 2 whole number = 66

Let's turn it into algebraic equation:

5x - 2x = 663x= 66x =66 /3x =22

Now Let's put value of x to find two whole numbers

Finaly :1 whole number = 2x1 whole number = 2×221 whole number =44

2 whole number = 5x2 whole number = 5×222 whole number = 110
