Jamar is four times as old as Pam,
\n" ); document.write( "jr = 4p
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " who is one-third as old as jackie.
\n" ); document.write( "p = \"1%2F3\"ja
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "ja = 3p
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "if jackie is 18,
\n" ); document.write( "ja = 18
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore
\n" ); document.write( "3p = 18
\n" ); document.write( "p = 6 yrs is Pam's age
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "jr = 4p
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "jr = 24 yrs is Jamar's age
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "what is the sum of their age?
\n" ); document.write( "24 + 6 + 18 = 48\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( ":
