Let \"+x+\" = Alice's age now
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+4+\" = Bob's age now
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+x+%2B+4+%29+%2B+2+=+2%2A%28+x+%2B+2+%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+6+=+2x+%2B+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+4+=+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Alice is 2
\n" ); document.write( "Bob is 6
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+6+%2B+2+=+2%2A%28+2+%2B+2+%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+8+=+2%2A4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+8+=+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK
