Regie is 5 years older than Lani five years ago the sum of their ages was 25.How old are they now?

Question

PLS SHOW THE 1st and 2nd equation

Answer 1

R = L + 5

L + R         = 25

L + (L + 5 ) = 25

2L + 5        = 25

2L             = 20

L               = 10

10 + 5 years = 15

Lani is 15,

Regie is 5 years older, 20 .

Answer 2

reggie is 20

lani is 15

Answer 3

Well if Reggie is 5 years older than Lani 5 years ago, So reggie is 10 years older than Lani which makes Lani 7.5 years old and Reggie is 17.5 years old. Am I correct? That seemed logical to me but I'm bad with math! lol... Alycia D.

Answer 4

reggie-20

lani-15

equations are too long to be written

Answer 5

Lani      +      5      =      Regie

Lani is 10     +      5      =     Regie 15

    5 years ago

(L) 10     +    (R) 15     =      25

    Today

(L) 10 + 5 = 15

(R) 15 + 5 = 20
