A T-Rex has two children. Their ages are consecutive integers that

total 33. How old are they both?

33/2 = ?

16.5

It must be in a equation form.

x+x=33

2x=33
2x/2=33/2
x=16.5
get the whole no. then the rounded no.

16+17=33

To find the ages of the two children, we can set up an equation based on the given information:

Let's assume the ages of the two children are x and (x + 1), where x is the age of the younger child. We know the total of their ages is 33, so we can write the equation:

x + (x + 1) = 33

Simplifying the equation, we get:

2x + 1 = 33

To isolate the variable, we subtract 1 from both sides:

2x = 32

Dividing both sides by 2, we find:

x = 16

Therefore, the younger child is 16 years old, and the older child is one year older, making them 17 years old.
