Answer:

  24

Step-by-step explanation:

The given age relationships can be used to reason about their ages.

__

When Holly was 4 times Spencer's age, the difference in their ages was 4-1=3 times Spencer's age. That is, Spencer was 51/3 = 17 years old, and Holly was 68.

That was 7 years ago, so Spencer is now 17+7 = 24 years old.
