In 1932, I was as old as the last two digits of my birth year. My( @goformit's) grandfather said that that applies to him also. How old are we ?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

is this a puzzle you are setting or do you need help in solving this?

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Sir, I need Help.

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

ok - lets call the year of your birth 19xy where x and y represent the two digits of your year of birth

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

can you see how to make use of this information?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

hint: if you were born in 19xy, then in 1932 your age would be: 1932 - 19xy

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

can you simplify this subtraction?

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Thank you Sir

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

yw :)
