Benjamin’s and David’s ages add up to 36 years. The sum of twice their respective ages also add up to 72 years. Find their ages

Benjamin’s age = 30 and David’s age = 6

Explanation:

Let x be the age of Benjamin
Let y be the age of David

x + y = 36

And 2x + 2y = 72

If we plug 30 for x and 6 for y we get:

30 + 6 = 36
36 = 36

2(30) + 2(6) = 72
60 + 12 = 72
72 = 72
