When the man was 18 years old, then the girl was half his age. From this we can say that the girl is 9 years younger than the man. So when the man is 66 years old, then the girl would be 57 years old.
Explanation: –
(Past)
Man’s age = 1/2 Girl’s age(x)
18 = 1/2 *x
x= 9 years
(Present)
Girl’s age(x) = Man’s age – 9 years
Girl’s age(x) = (66 – 9) years
Girl’s age(x) = 57 years
