Given:

Sara's age is represented by S and Ronaldo's age is represented by R.

Since,

Sara is 33 years younger than Ronaldo, then;

S= R - 33

Now, the sum of ages of Sara and Ronaldo is 105 then


R+S=105

Hence, from above,


\begin{gathered} S+R=105 \\ S=R-33 \end{gathered}

Therefore, second option is correct.
