Please help me solve this problem Ishaan+is+44+times+as+old+as+Luis+and+is+also+66+years+older+than+Luis.
---------------
Ishaan is 44 times as old as Luis and is also 66 years older than Luis.
-----
I = 44L
I = L + 66
---
Sub for I
44L = L + 66
43L = 66
Luis is 66/43 years =~ 1.535 years
Ishaan is ~ 67.535 years
