Jose is now six years older than john. in two years, jose will be twice as old as john. how old is john now ?

John is currently 6 years old. 

You can find this by setting John's original age as x and Jose's original age as x + 6. Then we can set up an equation adding two to both. 

John's new age = x + 2
Jose's new age = x + 8

Now we can multiply John's new age by two and set equal to Jose's age, since Jose's new age is twice as much as John's. 

2(x + 2) = x + 8
2x + 4 = x + 8
x + 4 = 8
x = 4

This means John's original age is 4 and his new age is 6. 

Ithink is a. true, but not sure
