Question

Mary is one year older than June, and their age add up to 15from a pair of equation and solve them to find the ages of the girls

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let age of Jane = x

Mary's age = x + 1

Sum of both their ages = 15

x + x +1 = 15

2x + 1 = 15

Solution:

Subtract 1 from both sides

2x = 15- 1

2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2

x = 14/2

x = 7

Jane's age = 7

Mary's age = 8
