Answer:
Eric's mom is 47 years old.
Step-by-step-explanation:
Let the age of Eric's mom be x years.
From the first condition,
Age difference between Eric and his mom is 28 years.
∴ x - Eric's age = 28
⇒ Eric's age = ( x - 28 ) years
From the second condition,
The total of their ages is 66 years.
∴ x + Eric's age = 66
⇒ x + ( x - 28 ) = 66
⇒ x + x - 28 = 66
⇒ 2x = 66 + 28
⇒ 2x = 94
⇒ x = 94 ÷ 2
⇒ x = 47 years
∴ Eric's mom is 47 years old.
