    Bonsoir

    1- Mike’s mother age: 4*x = 4x

    Mike’s sister age: x-6

    2- x is the age of Mike, so:

    x + 4x + x-6 = 48

    3a- solve the equation to find mike’s age:

    x+4x+x-6 = 48

    6x-6 = 48

    6x=48+6

    6x = 54

    x = 54/6

    x = 9

    Mike is 9 years old.

    b- When Mike was born, his mother was 27

    (because: now she is 4*9 = 36 years old, 9 years ago, she had 36-9 = 27 years old).
