Answer:

Aryan is 14 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let "A" represent Aryan's age, and "S" would represent Sarah's age, then we can make the following equations...

S = 2A - 6

S + A = 36

Now we sub in the value of S in terms of A and get...

S + A = 36

(2A - 6) + A = 36

2A - 6 + A = 36

3A = 36 + 6

3A = 42

A = 14
