    P = (65 - R) / 60

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Raul's grandfather is Miguel

    Raul's sister is Paula

    We are given that Raul's age is the same as his grandfather's age minus 60 times the age of his sister. If we write this mathematically, we have that:

    R = M - (60*P)

    Where R = Raul's age, M = Miguel's age and P = Paula's age

    We are then given that Miguel is 65 years old, this means that M = 65

    => R = 65 - 60P

    To find Paula's age, we make P the subject of formula, hence:

    60P = 65 - R

    => P = (65 - R) / 60

    We can use this expression to find Paula's age.
