13 ??

Nnesha (nnesha):

`karen is 13 years older than juan` let karen = x and juan =y so you can replace karen and juan with x and y `x is 13 years older than y` here is represent `=` sign

Nnesha (nnesha):

older than so means + sign `x is 13 years + y` replace is with equal sign

Nnesha (nnesha):

`the sum is 55` again is represent equal sign sum/add so when you add their agez u should get 55 `x+y=55`
