Question 1126842

Moe is twice as old as Larry. Moe is five years older than curly. Together Moe, Curly and Larry's ages add up to 65. how old are they?
<pre>Let Larry's age be L:
Then Moe's is 2L
Moe, or 2L = C + 5
C, or Curly is: 2L - 5
We then get: L + 2L + 2L - 5 = 65
5L = 70
L, or Larry is: {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,4, 70/5, "=", 14, years-old))}}}
You should be able to find Moe's and Curly's ages now.
