Mario and Luigi

Algebra Level 1

Luigi is 12 years older than Mario.

If Mario's age two years from now is half Luigi's age 6 years from now, how old will each 10 years from now?

If you want, you can play as Mario and Luigi.

Mario: 30 and Luigi: 36 Mario: 24 and Luigi: 36 Mario: 36 and Luigi: 24 Mario: 34 and Luigi: 32

Call x is Luigi's age and y is Mario's age. We have : x-y=12 and y+2=1/2 (x+6) => x=26, y= 14 So ten years from now Luigi will be 36 and Mario will be 24
