When you take Hiram's age and then add 12, you get 4 less than twice Allyson's age. If Hiram is 40 years old, how old is Allyson?

How old is Hiram? ** If Hiram's age is 40, when you add 12, his age becomes 40+12=<<40+12=52>>52
How old is Allyson? ** If you add 4 from Hiram's age after adding twelve to his age, you get 52+4 = 56, which is twice Allyson's age.
How old is Allyson? ** Allyson's age is 56/2 = <<56/2=28>>28 years
