The present age of a brother is 2 years more than five times the age of his sister. Four years hence, brother's age will be 4 years more than thrice the age of the sister. Find the present age of the brother?
27 years old
Brother- b Sister- s b=5s+2 b+4=3(s+4)+4 --> b=3s+12
5s+2=3s+12---> s=5 ---> b=27
We can write two equations, as follows: 1.- Y = 2 + 5X Y= age of brother, X = age of sister 2.- Y + 4 = 4 + 3 (X + 4) By solving the system of two equations, X = 5 and Y = 27
