You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is given is the gym is 21 years younger than the auditorium, and the gym is one-fourth the age of the auditorium. Then plug in the values given for the auditorium. You'll find the answer is that the auditorium is 28 yrs old. The gym is 21 years younger than the auditorium, so it is 28-21 or 7. and the gym is one-fourth the age of the auditorium: (7/28 simplified is 1/4)
