Question 852407: A man is 2 years older than his sister. Thirty years ago he was 3 times as old as her. How old is the man now? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! M = S+2 (A man is 2 years older than his sister.)
He is 33, she is 31. 30 years ago, he was 3 and she was 1.
Since they are only 2 year apart, they would still have been only 2 years apart 30 years ago.
