Question 1170635
<br>
If Raymond is 4 times as old as Remy, then their ages can be represented by 4x and x; the difference between their ages is then 4x-x = 3x.<br>
But if the difference in their ages is 7 years, then we would have to have 3x=7.<br>
But that gives an answer that is not a whole number....<br>
So the problem is defective.<br>
You can write the equations; but they can't be solved to get a reasonable answer.<br>
