age

this is my working out for the age problem
Age
I am twice my brother’s age and one fifth my mother’s age .
My dad is older then mum by half my brother’s age .
All our ages are whole nombers .
I go to school but my brother doesn’t yet .
How old are we ?

Well the brother’s age is 4 so that means that the boys age is 8

The boy is one fifth the mums age so that means that
the mum is 40 and that means that the dad is 42
