A better title would have been 'They are as much my ancestors'.

Hi teachers,

I have again encountered confusion while using 'as' in the following sentences-

This system is as much help to sellers as to buyers.
or
This system is as much help to sellers as is to buyers.



You are as important to me as to him.
or
You are as important to me as are to him.

It would be very nice of you if you could tell me the grammatically correct form of these sentences with reference to this linkhttps://www.usingenglish.com/forum/ask-teacher/197722-could-you-check-these-sentences-me.html
