What u do is, take the sister's age, then multiply it by 2 because the boy is 3 years older than TWICE his sister's age. His sister is 6, so 6x2=12, and he is 3 years older, so 6x2+3=15

The boy is 15 because twice the age of his sister is 12, then you add the three years to it and get 15

Since it's asking you to write a problem about a sharing division "situation", I'm assuming the picture above it is part of #4 so you could use that as a reference as well.

You could do 2 divided by 5 which is left with a remainder. So it could be like, "Jack has 5 cookies and wants to share with his friends, he wants to give each of his two friends 2 cookies each".. Something like that and you go ahead and solve it. The final answer will be the solution to your word problem. I hope this helped
