Question 52394: The ages of Ann and Bill add up to 91. Ann is now three times as old as bill was at the time when Ann was twice as old as Bill is now. How old are Ann and Bill now? Please give an explanation or place where I can find this information. Thanks. Answer by Paul(988) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ann is 3(2x) years old
Bill is x years old
EQUATION:
3(2x)+x=91
7x=91
x=13
91-13=78
Hence, Bill is 13 and Ann is 78
