Question 677323: I am the parent of a math student and have no idea how to help her solve this problem. Can you help?
Ola is less than one fourth of his father's age minus 6 years. If Ola is 2 years old, could his father be 34 years old?

34 x - 6
= 8.5 - 6
= 2.5 years
Ola's age is 2 years which is less than 2.5
Hence, if Ola is 2 years old, his father could be 34 years old.
