Brooke is 8 years old! This is what I did⬇️
5x2=10. (In 5 yrs 10 will add to the sum of their age.
29-10=19. (The sum of their ages right now is 19)
11 + 8 = 19 ( 11 is 3 more than 8 and it equals their ages together)
Brooke:8
Samantha:11

The sim of their age will be 19 NOT 29


s= Samantha

s-3=Brooke

In 5 years:

Samantha= s+5

Brooke (s-3) +5 = (s+2)

(s+5 ) + (s+2) = 29

2s = 7 =27

2s=22

s=11 Samantha =11

Brooke =11-3 =8          8+11=19
