\r\n" );
document.write( "1.  A is 5 years older than R,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "         and this age difference will be always in place.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2.  Four years later A will be twice as old as R.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "         Hence, four years later A will be twice as old as R  AND  (according to n.1) A will be 5 years older than R, at the same time.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "         It means that 4 years later A will be 10 years old, while R will be 5 years old.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "3.  Hence, their present age is  A= 6,  R = 1.\r\n" );
