Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'll do my best, though.
Well, we know that __ + __ = 36 and that one of the 2 numbers is double the other. We'll use x to be one number, and we'll use 2x to be double the number (because when you double x, you'll have 2x). And we know that we add them, right? x + 2x = 36. Now this is making sense! Just solve it!
x+2x=36 3x=36 x=12 But don't forget, that's only the age of the younger sister. The older sister is double the age of x, or 12. What is 12 doubled? 24. <em>The age of the two sisters is</em><em> 12 </em><em>&</em><em> 24</em><em>.</em> <em> </em><em>Don't forget to rate this answer as the Brainliest!</em>
