Leo is 13 3 4 years old. Sheila is 1 1 2 years older than Leo and Jane is 1 1 5 years older than Sheila. How old is Jane?

16 9/20 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Leo is 13 3/ 4 years old.

Step 1

Sheila is 1 1 /2 years older than Leo

Sheila = 13 3/4 years + 1 1/2 years

13 + 1 + ( 3/4 + 1/2)

Lowest common denominator 4

14 + ( 3 + 2/4)

14 + 5/4

= 14 + 1 1/4

= 15 1/4 years old

Jane is 1 1/ 5 years older than Sheila.

Jane's age = 15 1/4 years old + 1 1/5 years

15 + 1 + (1/4 + 1/5)

Lowest common denominator = 20

16 + (5 + 4/20)

16 9/20 years old

Therefore, Jane is 16 9/20 years old

the answer is c

step-by-step explanation:

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.
