Final answer:

The question is missing the total sum of Eve's and her aunt's ages. Without this information, it is not possible to calculate their exact ages. Please provide the total sum to find the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems there is missing information in the question you've provided. The question likely asks for the ages of Eve and her aunt, given that Eve's aunt is 52 years older than twice Eve's age, and the sum of their ages is a certain number. Unfortunately, the total sum was not provided in the question.

Let's assume the total sum of their ages is given as 'X'. We can then set up equations to represent the information provided. Let's let 'E' represent Eve's age and 'A' represent her aunt's age. We are given two pieces of information that result in two equations:

  1. A = 2E + 52
  2. E + A = X

Substituting the first equation into the second equation, we get:

E + (2E + 52) = X

Combining like terms, we have:

3E + 52 = X

To find Eve's age, we would need to know the value of 'X', the sum of their ages. Once we have that, we can solve for 'E' by subtracting 52 from 'X' and then dividing by 3. However, without the total sum, we cannot find the exact ages.

If this is a homework problem, please check the question again for the missing sum. If you provide the total sum, I would be able to calculate both Eve's and her aunt's ages for you.
