kyle is 18 and megan is 9, because 9 + 18 = 27 and 27 / 3 = 9. hope this helps :)

Answer:

Kyle's age = 18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Megan's age = x

Kyle's age = 2x

Combined ages  of Megan and Kyle = 27

x + 2x = 27

   3x = 27           {Divide both sides by 3}

3x/3 = 27/3

x = 9

Megan's age = 9 years

Kyle's age = 2 * 9 = 18 years
