8 years ago James was twice Janet's age. In 15 years James will turn 37. Susan was born when Janet turned 3. How old will Susan turn in 5 years?
A step-by-step solution is:
17
James is 37 - 15 = 22 years old.

So 8 years ago he was 22 - 8 = 14 years old.

That means Janet was 14 / 2 = 7 years old 8 years ago.

So Janet is now 7 + 8 = 15 years old.

That means Susan is 15 - 3 = 12 years old.

So in 5 years she will be 12 + 5 = 17 years old.

.

So, the answer is 17
