What are the name's of your three ! !and age's ? Try and make questions a bit harder. x x
don't know - has it to do with x, y and z!
I'll go with everybody elses answers Sparks, I've no brain cells at the minute, sorry! lol
I can do this from primary school,B.
Let Brian's age be x.Then Amanda's age is 2x.And Caleb is 2x+2
So x + 2x + (2x +2) = 27.
So 5x + 2 = 27
So 5x = 25
So x = 5
So Amanda is 10,Brian is 5 and Caleb is 12.
How about that and as my teacher always said "Show your working"!!!
I am really proud of myself now after all of these years!!!xxxx
5~10~12
