Answer:

96 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let Jorge's age be x

then the quotient of his age and 3 is x divided by 3 , so

[tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex] - 2 = 30 ( add 2 to both sides )

[tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex] = 32 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

x = 3 × 32 =96

Jorge is 96 years old
