What is arithmetic?

In mathematics it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Let the age of lily be L and the gare of her brother Ezekiel is E.
Lily is 14 older than her little brother Ezekiel.

L = 14 + E  - - - - - -(1)

In 8 years, Lily will be twice as old as Ezekiel will be then.

L = 2(E)

put L in equation 1.

2E = 14 + E
2E - E = 14
E = 14

Now put E in equation 1

L = 14 + 14
L = 28

Combined age of  Lily and Ezekiel's = 28 + 14
                                                       = 42

Thus, the combined age of  Lily and Ezekiel's is 42.
