170 is the answer to this
R=rita's age
m=mother's age
g=grandmother's age
mother is 4 times as old as rita
m=4r
grandmother is 2 times as old as mother
g=2m
sum is 104
r+m+g=104
subsitute 4r for m and 2m for g
r+4r+2m=104
subsitute 4r for m
r+4r+2(4r)=104
r+4r+8r=104
13r=104
divide both sides by 13
r=8
4r=m=32
8r=2m=g=64
rita is 8
mother is 32
grandmother is 64
To calculate the volume of a triangular prism, measure the width and height of a triangular base, then multiply the base by the height by 1/2 to determine the triangle's area. Next, measure the height of the triangular prism and multiply this by the triangle's area to get the volume.
