first we can figure out the cousin's age when the subject was 24 yrs old
\n" ); document.write( "1/4(24)
\n" ); document.write( "1/4(24/1)
\n" ); document.write( "24/4=6 \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "we multiplied 24 by 1/4
\n" ); document.write( "if the subject is now 51 we must subtract 24 from 51 to see how many years have gone by
\n" ); document.write( "51-24=27
\n" ); document.write( "so then we add 6 (the age the cousin was) to 27 the amount of years that have passed
\n" ); document.write( "6+27=33\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the cousin is 33 years old now
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
