Hi, teachers!
I have seen this sentence.
John is sixteen years old, but Mary, his sister, is only eight.
A. He is older than his sister two times.
B. He is twice as old as his sister.
C. His sister is twice as young as him.
D. He is two twice as older as his sister.
The key is B but I am wondering why C is incorrect, please.
