Answer 1

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

a = age

1. $\frac{a}{4} + 6 = \frac{a}{8} + 8$
2. you will multiply by 8 now
3. $2a + 48 = a + 64$
4. now move a's with a's and the numbers that don't have a variable with each other
5. $2a - a = 64 - 48$
6. now subtract
7. $a = 16$
8. I hope it helps you!
