Suppose Jane is x years old. Then Harvey is 3x years old, and the sum of their ages is x + 3x = 4x.

So 4x = 48.

Divide both sides by 4 to give x = 12. And then 3x = 36.

So Jane is 12, Harvey 36.

What do you get if Harvey is 3 times as old as Jane. The sum of their ages is 48?

Divide 48 by 4, and you get 12. Jane is 12 years old. Multiply 12 by 3, and you get 36. Harvey is 36 years old, and if they're not father and daughter, and they're paling around together, Harvey is probably a pedophile. You can verify this (the math part, not the pedophile part) by adding the two numbers. Add 12 to 36, and you get 48.
