Question

This year, Maddie's mother is 4 times older than Maddie.

If Maddie's mother is 33 years older than Maddie, how old is Maddie?

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Let's represent Maddie's age as M and her mother's age as 4M.

Since Maddie's mother is 33 years older than Maddie, we can set up the equation:
4M = M + 33

Subtracting M from both sides:
3M = 33

Dividing by 3:
M = 11

Therefore, Maddie is 11 years old.
