Ibrahim is 32 years old. He is twice as old as Zoya was when Ibrahim was as old as Zoya is now. How old is Zoya now?

Explanation

1. 01

   Let Zoya be $z$ now. Ibrahim was $z$ exactly $32 - z$ years ago.

2. 02

   At that time Zoya was $z - (32 - z) = 2z - 32$.

3. 03

   Ibrahim now is twice that: $32 = 2(2z - 32)$, so $4z = 96$.

4. 04

   $z = 24$. Check: 8 years ago Ibrahim was 24 and Zoya 16; $32 = 2 \times 16$.
