Answer 1

she is 15 years old ( Brittany)

Answer 2

Brittany is 15 years old

Explanation:

The way we get the answer is by getting the age of Alyssa 45-15=30 as, Jazmin is 15 years older than Alyssa and then we can see that Alyssa is twice as old as Brittany so we divide Alyssa's age by two. 30÷2=15 and we get Brittany's age which is 15 years old.
