Let h=henry's age and d=daisy's
\n" ); document.write( "h/2 + d/3 = 11
\n" ); document.write( "3h+2d=66 multiply each side by 6.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "h+6+d+6=40
\n" ); document.write( "h+d=28
\n" ); document.write( "h=28-d
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "3(28-d)+2d=66
\n" ); document.write( "84-3d+2d=66
\n" ); document.write( "-d=-18
\n" ); document.write( "d=18
\n" ); document.write( "h=10
\n" ); document.write( "
