Answer:

Elga is 37 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

(A shame they are not the same age but that would be too easy...)

So... they both equal 112 and one of them (Alvin) is 3 times older

Basically just divide 112 and 3

Answer : 37 years old

Check Work

112 - 37 = 75

75 + 37 = 112

Hope this helps :)
