    48-4=44

    Maggie is 44 years old because you subtract Maggie's brother's age by their ages combined.

    Maggie's age = x

    Brother age = x - 4

    The sum of their age = x + (x-4) = 48

    Solve for x

    x + (x-4) = 48

    2x - 4 = 48

    2x - 4 + 4 = 48 + 4

    2x = 52

    2x/2 = 52/2

    x = 26

    Maggie is 26
