5 answers

well, how old will John be in five years?
Mary will be twice that.
So subtract 5 years to get her current age.

or, doing the math by the book,
J = 10
M+5 = 2(J+5)
10-5=5

Mary age=5

10×5=50

50-20=30

Mary age in five years time=30

Mary's current age=27

mary is 25
Answer is 20 because the equation is 10 + 5 x 2 so you would use bomdas and multiply would be first so 10+ 10 = 20 Simple
