Question: 1 / 400

What is the sum of Jurgen and Francine's ages, when Francine is 8 years old and Jurgen is twice her age?

16

12

24

To find the sum of Jurgen and Francine's ages, we start with the information given. Francine is 8 years old, and Jurgen is twice her age. Therefore, we calculate Jurgen's age as follows:

Jurgen's age = 2 × Francine's age

= 2 × 8

= 16.

Now, we have Francine's age as 8 and Jurgen's age as 16. To find the total sum of their ages, we simply add these two values together:

Total age = Francine's age + Jurgen's age

= 8 + 16

= 24.

It seems that the initial selection of the choice as the answer may have considered something else. If we reflect on the question, it's clear that the only consistent option that mirrors the calculation of Jurgen being double Francine's age leads to the conclusion that the sum is, indeed, 24. Therefore, a reevaluation of the provided answer choices is warranted.
