Nathan has two brothers, Conner and Josh.
\n" ); document.write( "If we add 2 to Conner's age, it is exactly 1/2 the age of their older brother Josh, who is 12. How old is Conner?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(c+2) = (1/2)(12)
\n" ); document.write( "c+2 = 6
\n" ); document.write( "c = 4
\n" ); document.write( "========
\n" ); document.write( "I got the answer of 4 years old.
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "================================================
\n" ); document.write( "Now here is the problem. How many years will it be until Conner's age is 1/2 of Josh's age?
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(c+x) = (1/2)(12+x)
\n" ); document.write( "4+x = 6 + x/2
\n" ); document.write( "(1/2)x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 yrs
\n" ); document.write( "--------
