Question 1071987: Can you figure this out if you were 6 years old and you had a sister who was half of your age then and now you are 70 years old how old would your sister be now
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since she was half your age when you were 6, she was 3 then.
Therefore she is 3 years younger than you.  Since you are now
70 (LOL!), she is a mere 67.
