Question 611089
Let's write this mathematically.
I am twice as old as you were when I was of your age. (2x) Sum of your and my age is 42 years. (+x)
{{{2x+x=42}}}
That can simplify to: {{{3x=42}}}
Divide both sides by 3 to get: {{{x=14}}}.
Since your age is 2x, we substitute our value for x in. {{{2(14)+28}}}
Your age is <b>28</b>.
