<PRE><B>Question 1207798</B>
&lt;pre&gt;
Rico&#39;s and Maris&#39;s age gap is 25 years.
4 years from now, Rico&#39;s age will be 5 years less than twices maris&#39;s age

The CORRECT answer, whatever that may be, DEPENDS on whether
&quot;4 years from now, Rico&#39;s age will be 5 years less than twices maris&#39;s age,&quot; should acually be:
 4 years from now, Rico&#39;s age will be 5 years less than &lt;s&gt;twices maris&#39;s&lt;/s&gt; twice Maris&#39; age, &lt;font color = red&gt;&lt;font size = 4&gt;&lt;b&gt;THEN&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 &lt;font color = red&gt;&lt;font size = 4&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;OR&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
 4 years from now, Rico&#39;s age will be 5 years less than &lt;s&gt;twices maris&#39;s&lt;/s&gt; twice Maris&#39; &lt;font color = red&gt;&lt;font size = 4&gt;&lt;b&gt;CURRENT&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt; age

If the former, current ages are 26 and 51
If the latter, current ages are 34 and 59, with Rico OBVIOUSLY being older (2&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; sentence confirms this).&lt;/pre&gt;</PRE>
