SOLUTION: The sum of Tray's age and Ja’s age is 60. Nine years ago, Tray was twice as old as Ja then. How old is Ja?

Nine years ago, the sum of their ages was  60-2*9 = 42 years,

and Tray was twice the Ja's age.


Then it is OBVIOUS that the Ja's   age was  42/3 = 14 years then, and

                        the Tray's age was  14*2 = 28 years.


Hence, now they are 14+9 = 23 years old  (Ja's age)  and  28+9 = 37 years old (Tray's age).    ANSWER
