Answer:

The answer is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 Write out an expression

So since Shelby is 7 times Bonnie, Bonnie is x years old that time. So the expression is S=7x

Step 2 Plug in

Now Shelby is 98 so all u have to do is now plug in what you have in the expression.

98=7x

Step 3 solve

98=7x

divide 7 on both sides and you get:

14=x

so Bonnie is currently 14
