For this you need to work backward

Step 1:
Subtract the time she lived in Montana for

62-8 = 54

Step 2:
Because she lived in NYC for twice as long as Cali you need to divide by 3

54/3 = 18

Step 3:
Because she lived in NYC you have to double 18

18 x 2 = 36

Step 4:
Answer

She lived in NYC for 36 years
