The answer to this would be 3/8.
you just simplify the given terms, so -1 7/8 can be simplified into -15/8 and 2 1/4 can be simplified into 9/4, add those together to get a sum of 3 over 8 or 3/8.
Good Luck

Let x is Casey's sister age.
<span>3 years ago:
</span><span>Casey was twice as old as his sister: 2a - 3
Now:
</span><span>he is 5 years older than his sister: a + 5
2a - 3 = a + 5
subtract a to both sides
2a - 3 -a = a + 5 - a
simplify
a - 3 = 5
add 3 to both sides
a - 3 + 3 = 5 + 3
simplify
a = 8
His sister age is 8 years old now.
</span>Now:
he is 5 years older than his sister: a + 5 = 8 + 5 = 13
<span>
proof:
so 3 years ago,
his sister age: 8 - 3 = 5
Casey age 3 years ago:
13 - 3 = 10 (</span>C<span>asey was twice as old as his sister 3 years ago</span>)
<span>
Answer:
Casey is 13 years old now.
