Answer: 36 sowwy if im wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Charlene is 8 years older than Aoran.

The total sum is 44, so we write an equation,

8 + ___ = 44

we subtract 44 - 8 to find the sum

44 - 8 = 36

We check the problem we can do this by adding 36 and 8

36 + 8 = 44

8 + 6 = 14

we bring the one from the 14 and add it to the 3 which is 3 + 1 = 4

Answer:

Charlene is 26 and Aaron is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to start by setting up an equation:

In that case, we can represent their ages with A as our variable:

(A + 8) + A = 44

Solving:

2A + 8 = 44

We subtract 8:

2A = 36

Simplifying:

A = 18.

Now we can plug-and-chug:

18 + 8 = 26. So Charlene is 26 and Aaron is 18.

Check:

When we plug in 26 + (26 - 8) we should get 44.

26 + 18 = 44

So we are correct.
