\n" ); document.write( " How many years ago was Kimmi's mother 5 times as old at Kimmi?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let y = no. of years ago for this to be true
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "44 - y = 5(16-y)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "44 - y = 80 - 5y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "-y + 5y = 80 - 44
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "4y = 36
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"36%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "y = 9 years ago, Mom's age was 5 times K's age

\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Prove this
