You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = barbara age
\n" ); document.write( "1+6x = Jeremy.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1+6x-x=66
\n" ); document.write( "1+5x=66
\n" ); document.write( "5x=65
\n" ); document.write( "x=13\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "13(6)+1=79\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, Jeremy is 79 years old and Barbara is 13 years old.
