Jack=Jill-58 years
\n" ); document.write( "If the sum their ages totals 92 in seven years the sum is presently:
\n" ); document.write( "92-14 (7 years for each)=78 years
\n" ); document.write( "So Jill + Jack=78 years
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for Jack, solve for Jill:
\n" ); document.write( " Jill + Jill -58 years=78 years
\n" ); document.write( " Jill+Jill=136 years Add 58 years to both sides
\n" ); document.write( " 2Jill=136
\n" ); document.write( " Jill=68 Divide both sides by 2 ANSWER Jill's Age
\n" ); document.write( "This would make Jack 10
\n" ); document.write( "CHECK:
\n" ); document.write( "In 7 years, Jack will be 17 and Jill will be 75
\n" ); document.write( "Jack in 7 + Jill in 7=92 years
\n" ); document.write( "17 years + 75 years=92 years
\n" ); document.write( " 92 years=92 years
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
