Elga's age is 50, and Alvin's age is 56. So, the sum of their ages is 106.

Let the age of Elga be x.

Age of Alvin = x + 6

Sum of ages = 106

x + x + 6 = 106

2x + 6 = 106

2x = 106 - 6

2x = 100

x = \frac{100}{2} 

x = 50

Hence, Elga is 50 years old.

pentagon [3]
Hello! To solve this question, we can write and solve a proportion. Because we are looking for the whole, which is the total amount of visitors on a Saturday, set the proportion up like this: 144/x = 60/100. This is because we are looking for the total amount of visitors, and we know that 144 is 60% of x number of visitors. Cross multiply the values in order to get 14,400 = 60x. Now, divide each side by 60 to isolate the "x". 14,400/60 is 240. x = 240. The art museum had 240 visitors that Saturday.
