Let's say that Batman's age is b, and Robin's age is r.

We can set up a system of equations as such with the given information:


b=4r\\b+r=45

Using substitution, we plug-in 4r from the first equation into b in the second equation to get
5r=45 \\ r=9.

Now, we plug in the value of r into the first equation to get
b=4(9)=36.

Thus, Batman is 36 years old, and Robin is 9 years old... A little weird?
