If you are Three years older than your sister and in 20 years your sister will be twice as old as you are now how old is your sister and you?

Let you be x years old now Let your sister be y years old now Right now: x+3 = y In 20 years you are x+20 and your sister is y+20 years old (y+20)=2x plugging in y from the first equation: [(x+3)+20]=2x x+23=2x x = 23 y = 23+3 = 26 To check, the answer if you are 23 now an your sister is 26 now in 20 years your sister will be 46 which is twice 23.
