    Let's represent Brandon's age by x and Michael is 4 times as old as Brandon so 4x andx + 27. The equation is

    4x=x+27 Therefore Brandon is 9 years old.

    4x-x=x-x+27 4x=4*9=36

    3x=27 x+27=9+27=36

    3x/3=27/3

    x=9

    M=4b

    m=27+b

    subsitute

    4b=27+b

    minus b

    3b=27

    divide 3

    b=9

    sub back

    4b=m

    4 (9) = m

    36=m

    michel=36 and brandon is 9
