Let's represent Rhoda's age as R and Kevwe's age as K.
We know that Rhoda is 11 years older than Kevwe:
R = K + 11
In five years time, Rhoda's age and Kevwe's age will increase by 5 years:
R + 5 = 2(K + 5)
Substitute the expression for R from the first equation into the second equation:
K + 11 + 5 = 2(K + 5)
K + 16 = 2K + 10
K = 6
Now that we know K = 6, we can find Rhoda's age:
R = K + 11
R = 6 + 11
R = 17
Therefore, Rhoda is currently 17 years old and Kevwe is currently 6 years old.
