Let Dorothy's age = x.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "We know that George is 4 times older than Dorothy, therefore let George's age = 4x
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Now, we can solve for Dorothy's age
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 56 (Divide by 4)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x = 14
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, Dorothy is 14 years old.\r
