Answer:
Katie is 6 years old and Thomas is 3 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that we should let K and T be the current ages of two siblings, Katie and Thomas.
If Katie is currently twice the age of Thomas then,
K = 2T
and in 6 years, Katie will be 4 times Thomas's current age then
K + 6 = 4T
Solving both equations simultaneously by substituting the value of K given in the first equation into the second
2T + 6 = 4T
Collect like terms
6 = 4T - 2T
6 = 2T
Divide both sides by 2
T = 3
Recall that K = 2T
K = 2 * 3
= 6
Hence Katie is 6 years old while Thomas is 3 years old
