[quote="blue"]Jim is three times as old as Jane was two years ago. In 10 years, Jane will be as old as Jim is now. How old are they now? (Hint: Jane is not yet a teenager.)
it's 18 and 8... but i'm struggling to figure out how that was figured out.
quote]
Jim = 3(Jane-2)
Jim = Jane + 10
Jane + 10 = 3Jane - 6
10 = 2Jane - 6
16 = 2Jane
Jane = eight
Jim = eighteen

My whole, detectives need to find.

No, he didn't cheat. It was first on my list, followed by diets, tides, and edits....I didn't come up with sited.
