In 2 years, Maxwell will be twice his sister's age. If his sister is now 2, how old is Maxwell now?
How old will his sister be in 2 years? ** In two years, Maxwell's sister will be 2 years + 2 years = <<2+2=4>>4 years old.
How old will Maxwell be in 2 years? ** Therefore, Maxwell will be 4 years x 2 = <<4*2=8>>8 years old in two years.
How old is Maxwell now? ** Maxwell is now 8 years - 2 years = <<8-2=6>>6 years old.
