Question

Jackson is 5 years old. His brother Micah is 20 years older than him. Which equation represents Micah's age in comparison with Jackson's age?

Answer 1

M=5+20

Explanation:

I’m using M for representing Micah’s age.

This would represent Micah’s age because it says that Micah is 20 years older than Jackson, who is 5. Therefore, you would just need to add 5 and 20 together. Micah is 25 years old.
