</pre>

Solved   &nbsp;(&nbsp;correctly !&nbsp;).


Now compare it with the answers by &nbsp;@josgarithmetic, who gives &nbsp;Jim &nbsp;16  &nbsp;and &nbsp;Tom &nbsp;32.


<U>Be aware</U> : &nbsp;&nbsp;The solution by @josgarithmetic is &nbsp;&nbsp;<U>T O T A L L Y &nbsp;&nbsp;W R O N G</U>.


------------------


@josgarithmetic is VERY well known &nbsp;(or better to say, &nbsp;very badly known, &nbsp;unfortunately) &nbsp;in this forum,
for his inability to solve problems correctly and to make calculations accurately.



So be very careful when you obtain "solutions" from him.


In half of all cases &nbsp;(if not at most cases)&nbsp; they are wrong.


Do not trust him and always wait for reaction of other tutors.



In the normal school environment he would be fired in the second day.



I think about thousands of visitors and students who do understand almost nothing in Math and who were misguided 
by his false and wrong quasi- and pseudo-"solutions".



People, &nbsp;be careful about &nbsp;@josgarithmetic &nbsp;! &nbsp;&nbsp;! &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;!
