Sure, I'd be happy to help you with this.

Juliet is 3 years older than her sister Maggie, which means Maggie is 3 years younger than Juliet.

If Juliet is 10, then Maggie is 7 years old (10 - 3 = 7).

Similarly, if Juliet is 3 years younger than her brother Ralph, then his age must be 3 years greater than hers.

Ralph's age = Juliet's age + 3
           = 10 + 3
           = 13 years old

So, the sum of Maggie's (7) and Ralph's (13) ages is 20 years old (7 + 13 = 20).

In summary, if Juliet is 10 years old, Maggie is 7, and Ralph is 3 years older than Juliet, then the sum of Maggie's and Ralph's ages is 20.

Step 1: Find Maggie's age.
Juliet is 3 years older than Maggie. If Juliet is 10 years old, then Maggie is 10 - 3 = 7 years old.

Step 2: Find Ralph's age.
Juliet is 2 years younger than Ralph. If Juliet is 10 years old, then Ralph is 10 + 2 = 12 years old.

Step 3: Add Maggie's and Ralph's ages together.
Maggie is 7 years old and Ralph is 12 years old, so their combined age is 7 + 12 = 19 years old.

So, the sum of Maggie's and Ralph's ages is 19 years old.
