Jacob is 12 years younger than twice Elizabeths age Jacob is 28 years old how old is Elizabeth

Jacobs age is 28, Elizabeths age is twice more than Jacobs age which is 28 plus 12 which is 42. 42 divided by 2 is 21 and this is the answer, sorry I'm not good at explaining but I hope this helps!

Let Elizabeth's age = x

And Jacob's age =

2x - 12  = 28

Add 12 to both sides

2x = 40

Divide both sides by 2

x = 20   = Elizabeth's age
