Question

Alvin is 14 years older than elga's The sum of their ages is 94 what is elga'ss age

Answer 1

Elga = 40

Explanation:

Let's represent Alvin as A and Elga as E

Let's make equation

A = 14 + E

A + E = 94

Let substitute A

(14 + E) + E = 94

14 + 2E = 94

Subtract 14 from both sides: 2E = 80

Divide both sides by 2

E = 40

Elga is 40

Answer 2

Elga’s age is 40 and Alvin’s age is 54
