Blain is two years older than three times jillians age. jillian is also 16 years younger than blain. how old is blain?

The age of Blain is 23 years old

Solution:

Let the age of Blain be "a" and age of Jillian be "b"

Given that Blain is two years older than three times Jillians age

So we can frame a equation as:

age of blain = 2 + 3(age of Jillian)

a = 2 + 3b eqn 1

Also given that Jillian is also 16 years younger than Blain

Age of Jillain = Age of Blain - 16

b = a - 16 eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

a = 2 + 3(a - 16)

a = 2 + 3a - 48

a - 3a = -46

-2a = -46

a = 23

Thus the age of Blain is 23 years old
