Answer:

In ten year you will be 10 years older than you are now and so will your brother. The 6 years difference will remain if no one dies.

Explanation:

You are z years old

Your brother is 6 years younger than z years; z - 6 years

In 10 years time, you will be z + 10 years

Your brother will be z - 6 years + 10 years = z + 4 years

OR

In 10 years time, you will be z + 10 years

You brother is still 6 years younger than you, so is z + 10 years - 6 years = z + 4 years
