 
 <translate> Given the stream of consciousness rationale, provide a reasonable question and answer. Rationale: If x is Maria's age, then Mario's age is x + 1. The equation that represents the sum of their ages is x + x + 1 = 7. By combining like terms, the equation becomes 2x = 6. Hence, the value of x which represents the age of Maria is 6 / 2 = 3. So Mariu is 3 + 1 = 4 years old.
 The question and answer: <hau> Ganin ra'ayin tunani na hankali, samar da tambaya mai ma'ana da amsa. Dalili: Idan x shine shekarun Maria, to, shekarun Mario shine x + 1. Ƙididdigar da ke wakiltar jimlar shekarunsu ita ce x + x + 1 = 7. Ta hanyar haɗa abubuwa iri ɗaya, lissafin ya zama 2x = 6. Saboda haka, darajar x wanda yake wakiltar shekarun Maria shine 6 / 2 = 3. Don haka Mariu yana da shekara 3 + 1 = 4.  Tambaya da amsa:
