Chris, devin, bradley and mitchell are all basketball players, and the total of their ages is 104. chris is twice as old as bradley; devin is eight years older than bradley, and mitchell is eight years older than devin.

Chris is twice as old as Bradley: C = 2B

Devin is eight years older than Bradley: D = B + 8

Mitchell is eight years older than Devin: M = B + 8 + 8

Bradley: B = B

Plug in the values:

-->

Subtract 24 from both sides.

5B = 104 - 24

5B = 80

B =

B = 16

Plug in the values to know the age of each player:

Chris: 2(16) Chris is 32 years old.

Devin: (16) + 8 Devin is 24 years old.

Mitchell: (16) + 8 + 8 Mitchell is 32 years old.

Bradley is sixteen years old.

To check your work, add up all of their ages: 2(32) + 24 + 16 = 104
