You can put this solution on YOUR website! The difference in Alex and Toni’s ages is 5. The product of their ages is 104.
If Alex is older, how old is Toni?
-----------
They're 8 & 13
======================
You can do it the long way:
x = Toni's age
---
x*(x+5) = 104
At this point, you factor 104 and get x = 8. More steps to do the same.
