Answer:
Jason is 24 years old
Explanation:
Lets say that Jason's age is X, and his brother's age is Y.
We know that X + Y = 55.
We also know that (X + 7) = Y.
This means (X + 7) + Y = 62 (We got the 62 by adding 55 and 7)
Anyway if X+7= Y, and X+7 + Y = 62, then X+7 = 62/2, right?
We divide the 62 by 2 and we get 31.
Alright, so X+7 = 31.
substract both sides by 7.
We get X = 24
Sorry if this seemed longer or more complicated than it should've been, I don't know how to explain it better.
