How old are Peter and John?

John is twice as old as Peter. In 6 years, the sum of their ages will be 54. How old is each one now?

  1. Let's call Peter's age "p".

    Given that John is twice as old as Peter, John's age is 2p.
    In 6 years, Peter will be p + 6 and John will be 2p + 6.

    According to the problem, in 6 years, the sum of their ages will be 54. So, we can write the equation:
    (p + 6) (Peter's age in 6 years) + (2p + 6) (John's age in 6 years) = 54

    Combining like terms:
    3p + 12 = 54

    Subtracting 12 from both sides:
    3p = 42

    Dividing both sides by 3:
    p = 14

    So, Peter's current age is 14 and John's current age is 2 times Peter's age, which is 28.

    In summary:
    Peter: 14 years old
    John: 28 years old
