Given equations:
P=w+2
p=7w-16
Compare both equations
7w-16=w+2
Add 16 to both sides.
7w=w+18
Subtract w from both sides.
6w=18
Divide both sides by 6.
w=3, which is the age of Winnie.
Now Peter's age=3+2=5 years
Option A is the correct method to find the age of Peter and Winnie.
A) 8/40 = 1/5
b) 12/40 or 6/20
c) 26/40 or 13/20
