Question

1 Latisha and Maisha are twins. They have a brother who is eleven years younger than

them and an older sister who is four years older. The sum of the ages of all four siblings
is 73. Find Latisha's age.
Sum = 73

Answer 1

Answer: 20 years old

Explanation:

L=Latisha's age. M=Maisha's age.

O=older sister's age. Y=Younger Brother's age

L=M since both Latisha and Maisha are twins.

Y=L-11

O=L+4

L+M+O+Y=73

L+L+L+4+L-11=73

L+L+L+L+4-11=73

4L-7=73

4L=80

L=20 years old
