Raul is 5 years older than twice carlos age. the sum of their ages is 101. how old is carlos?

Answer:32years old

Step-by-step explanation:

R = 2c+5

R+C = 101

2c+5+c=101

3c+5=101

3c=96

c=32

32 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Carlos be represented by x

Then the age of Raul can be represented as the sum of twice the age of Carlos and 5.

In other words, Raul's age = 2x + 5

Sum of Carlos and Raul's age is 101

That is, / [x + 2x + 5 = 101/]

Or, / [3x + 5 = 101/]

Or, / [3x = 96/]

Or, / [x = 32/]

Hence, the age of Carlos is 32 years.

Age of Raul on the other hand is 2*32 + 5 = 69 years

Sum of their ages is 32 + 69 = 101 years.
