Question

Gary is now twice as old as Karl. If Gary is 16 years old now, how old will Karl be in 7 years time? ​

Answer 1

Karl will be 15 y/old

Step-by-step explanation:

If Gary is twice as old as karl and he's currently 16, the karl must be 8 because 8x2=16

then, seven years go by so Gary's age would be 16+7=23

Karl would be 8+7=15

Hopefully this is the right answer.

Answer 2

Karl will be 15 because half of 16 is 8 and 8+7=15
