The sum of 16 and Janelle's age is 53
I didn't know that.
16+j=53
now what?
To find Janelle's age, we need to solve the equation: 16 + Janelle's age = 53.
To get Janelle's age, we can subtract 16 from both sides of the equation.
53 - 16 = Janelle's age
Simplifying the equation:
37 = Janelle's age
Therefore, Janelle's age is 37.
