    Jimmy is 16 old.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    J - the age of Jimmy John

    50 - the age of Papa John

    3J + 2 - the age of Papa John

    The euaqtion:

    3J + 2 = 50 subtract 2 from both sides

    3J + 2 - 2 = 50 - 2

    3J = 48 divide both sides by 3

    3J/3 = 48/3

    J = 16
