    Nicole's age can be x. So, that makes Teresa's age x + 6.

    In 4 years, Nicole's age will be x + 4 and Teresa's age x + 6 + 4 or x + 10.

    We can add these two to find the sum (66).

    x + 4 + x + 10 = 66

    2x + 14 = 66

    2x = 66 - 14 = 52

    2x/2 = 52/2

    x = 26

    Thus, Nicole's age is 26 making Teresa's age 26 + 6 or 32.
