cora is 10 years old than rose 5 years old
1. We know that Cora is 4 years older than Rose. This means, if we subtract 4 years from their combined ages, we will get Rose's age.
2. The question states that their combined ages are 40. So, if we subtract Rose's age from 40, we will find Cora's age.
Let's calculate it:
Rose's age = 40 - (40-4)
= 40 - 36
= 4
Cora's age = Rose's age + 4
= 4 + 4
= 8
Therefore, Cora is 8 years old.
