The age of Sydney is 25 years old

Solution:

Given that Devaughn is 7 years older than Sydney

The sum of their ages is 57

Let the age of Sydney be "x"

Then according to given information,

Age of Devaughn = x + 7

Now, Sum of Sydney age and Devaughn age = 57

Substituting the values we get,

x + x + 7 = 57

2x + 7 = 57

2x = 57 - 7

2x = 50

x = 25

"x" represents age of Sydney. Hence Sydney's age is 25 years old
