Abigail is 4 times as old as Bonnie. In 6 years, Bonnie will be twice as old as Candice. If, 4 years from now, Abigail will be 36 years old, how old will Candice be in 6 years?
\n" ); document.write( "In 4 years Abigail will be 36 years.
\n" ); document.write( "So Abigail is 32 years now.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "let candice age be x now.
\n" ); document.write( "after 6 years
\n" ); document.write( "she will be x+6 years.
\n" ); document.write( "Bonnie will be 2(x+6) years
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Bonnie's age now will be 2(x+6)-6
\n" ); document.write( "4 times Bonnies age = Abigail's age now
\n" ); document.write( "4(2(x+6)-6)=32
\n" ); document.write( "4(2x+6)=32
\n" ); document.write( "8x+24=32
\n" ); document.write( "8x=32-24
\n" ); document.write( "8x=8
\n" ); document.write( "x= 1 Candice's age now\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "After 6 years years she will be 6+1=7 years
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
