Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let k represent Kim's age. Then Jack's age is k-5 and the total of their ages is ...
k + (k -5) = 21
2k = 26 . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms
k = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; Kim's age
k -5 = 8 . . . . . . . Jack's age

800,000 is the correct answer
So this is basically a ratio and the form I use to solve these is
Is. = %
Of. 100
So we're looking for 5% of the 350,000 which will be x
X. = 5
350000. 100
Cross multiply
100x=1750000
Divide by 100
X=17500
