Question

Mary is 6 years younger than Jane and 5 years older than James the sum of their ages is 94 years what are their ages

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let their present ages be

Jane : x + 6

younger sister : x

After ten years their ages will be

Jane : x + 6 + 10 = x + 16 (1)

younger sister : x + 10 (2)

Now given that sum of ages = 50

(1) + (2)

Younger sister age is 12

Jane's age is 12+6 = 18
