Determine 3372

The son and mother are 32 years old together. My mother is 28 years older. Find how old they are.

Correct answer:

m =  30
s =  2

Step-by-step explanation:


s+m=32
m= s+28

m+s = 32
m-s = 28

Row 2 - Row 1 → Row 2
m+s = 32
-2s = -4


s = -4/-2 = 2
m = 32-s = 32-2 = 30

m = 30
s = 2
