Answer:

23 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:
Ricky is 5 years older than Ciara...
6 years their ages will equal 53 years of age.

So, we have to remember that in six years their ages will equal 53 and one is five years older than the other.

[tex]23+6=29[/tex]
[tex]18+6=24[/tex]
[tex]29-5=24[/tex]
[tex]29+24=53[/tex]
[tex]29-6=23[/tex]
[tex]=23[/tex]

Which means Ricky as of right now is "23 years of age" and Ciara as of right now is "18 years of age".

Hope this helps.
