    Hank is 9 years old. Explanation - What I did is I made a chart, and the categories were Sam and Hank. Then all I did was add 5 to Sam's age and added 3 to Hank's age. I repeated this until the sum of the ages equaled 24.

    5:3 : Sum is: 8

    10:6 : Sum is: 16

    15:9 : Sum is: 24

    The ration is of Sam to Hank, so Sam would be the first number, and Hank would be the second number.

    Hank is 9 years old.
