In 8 year Mac's grandma will be twice as old as she was 29 years ago. How old will Mac's grandmother be in 4 years
In 8 years Mac's grandma will be twice as old as she was 29 years ago. How old will Mac's grandmother be in 4 years
Let her age now = A
29 years ago her age = A - 29
And in 8 years, her age will be A + 8
So...we know that
2 (A - 29) = A + 8 simplify
2A - 58 = A + 8 add 58 to both sides, subtract A from both sides
A = 66 this is her age now
So....in 4 years, she will be 70
