    X = Jane's age

    6x = Aunt Mary's age

    6x = 72

    x = 72/6

    x = 12 years [ Jane]

    Jane is 12 years old.

    Because if Mary is 6 times older than just divide her age by 6. Which is 12.

    And you can check like this:

    -Jane is 12

    -Mary is 6 times that

    -so Mary is 72
