Answer:

Emily is 17

Explanation:

If Jamie is 47 and she is 4 less than 3 times older than Emily, you want to start by doing the opposite of each identifying word. Remember to work backwards. 4 less means minus 4, but you want to do the opposite so you will add 4 to 47. 47 + 4 = 51 Then if it says 3 times this mean multiplication but again, we wanna do the opposite so 51 ÷ 3 = 17

To check it Multiply 17 by 3 and then subtract 4. 17*3=51 51-4=47
