Man Wrinkle spent one-fourth of his life as a boy one-eighth as a youth and one-half as an active man If Man Wrinkle spent 9 years as an old man then how many years did he spend as an active man?
Assuming Man Wrinkle died at 9 years of an old man (which would total 100% of his life: 1.00 - .25 - .125 - .50 = .125. Man Wrinkle lived one-eighth of his life as an old man. If one-eighth of his life was 9 years, then he spent 36 years as an active man, 9 years as a youth, and 18 years as a boy. Man Wrinkle died at 72 years of age.
Man Wrinkle spent one-fourth of his life as a boy one-eighth as a youth and one-half as an active man If Man Wrinkle spent 11 years as an old man then how many years did he spend as an active man?
He spent 44 years as an active man. Since half his life was spent as an active man the other half of his life is equal to 1/4 ( or 2/8) as a baby plus 1/8 as a youth plus 11 years as an old man. Since the time spent as a baby plus the time spent as a youth equals 3/8ths of his life that makes the 11 years spent as an old man the remaining 1/8th, so if 11 years equals 1/8th of his life than 11 x 4 = 44 which is 4/8ths or 1/2 of his life. Therefore, 44 years is half his life which is the time he spent as an active man.
