1 year from now Paul will be 49 years old. The current sum of the ages of Paul and Sharon is 85. How old is Sharon right now?
If Paul will be 49 years old 1 year from now, this means today, he is 49 - 1 = 48 years old.
Let Sharon's age be s. Then from the current sum of Paul and Sharon's ages, we get:
s + 49 = 85
Type this equation into our search engine, and get:
