Answer:

Joe is 16, Frank is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to this problem, we first divide 38 by two.

38 / 2 = 19.

Then, we subtract 6 from 19 and have 19 and 13.  Obviously, 19 is 6 more than 13 (19 - 13 = 6).  Now, we need to make sure our number on the left is always 6 more than the number on the right.  19 + 3 = 22, 13 + 3 = 16.  Since Frank is older than Joe by 6 years, we get 22 and 16 as their ages.
