Marissa and Kendra arc 2 years apart in age. Their ages arc two consecutive odd integers. Kendra is the younger of the two. If Marissa\'s age is added to twice Kendra\'s age, the result is 23. How old is each girl? Kendra is years old while Marissa is Solution Let Kenda’s age be x years. Then Marissa’s age is x +2 years. Then 2 times Kendra’s age so that x+2 + 2x = 23 or, 3x= 23 -2 = 21 . Hence x = 7 and x +2 = 9. Thus, Kenda’s age is 7 years and Marissa’s age is 9 years..
