Question

Ann is 4 years older than Julie. 4 years ago, ann was twice as old as julie. find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer: Julie is 8 years old, Ann is 12 years old

Explanation:

A=Ann's age. J=Julie's age

A=J+4

A-4=(J-4)*2

A-4=2(J-4)

A=2(J-4)+4

2(J-4)+4=J+4

2J-8+4=J+4

2J-4=J+4

2J=J+8

J=8

A=J+4

A=8+4

A=12

Julie is 8 years old. Ann is 12 years old. :) hope this wasnt too late
