1:5 is the answer in 1:n form
Answer:the uncle is 54 years old.
The woman is 18 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the age of the uncle.
Let y represent the age of the woman that he married.
In the film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. This means that
x = 3y
He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 18 years time I shall only be twice her age. It means that
x + 18 = 2(y + 18)
x + 18 = 2y + 36 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes
3y + 18 = 2y + 36
3y - 2y = 36 - 18
y = 18
x = 3y = 3 × 18
x = 54
Simplifyiing
the greatest common factor is 3 so
3x - 9y + 12 = 3(x - 3y + 4)
