Question

charles is 7 years older than jorge. in 20 years time, the sum of their ages will be 81 years. how old is each one now? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

present age of Jorge = x

present age of Charles = x + 7

after 20 years

age of Jorge = x + 20

age of Charles = x + 27

sum

x + 20 + X + 27 = 81

2X = 81 - 47

2x = 34

x = 17

present age of Jorge = 17

present age of Charles = 37
