Myra is 23 years old.
"It is a mathematical statement which consists of equal symbol between two algebraic expressions."
For given question,
Let 'x' and 'y' and 'z' be the age of Jenny, Myra and Melody respectively.
Jenny is 13 years older than her sister Myra.
So, we get an equation,
⇒ x = y + 13 ....................(1)
Myra is 6 years younger than her sister Melody.
So, we get an equation,
⇒ y + 6 = z ....................(2)
Their combined age is equal to 88 years.
So, we get an equation,
⇒ x + y + z = 88
⇒ y + 13 + y + y + 6 = 88 .............(from equation (1) and (2))
⇒ 3y + 19 = 88
⇒ 3y = 69
⇒ y = 23
Therefore, Myra is 23 years old.
