Question

What's is jiri's age ? Pamela is 5 years younger than jiri. The sum of their ages is 37

Answer 1

If Jiri is x, Pamela is x -5, and tehri ages combined would be 35 so;
x + x-5 = 35
collect the like terms
2x-5 = 35
add five to both sides
2x= 40
divide both sides by 2
x=20
Jiri's age is 20
