Christmas Maths Puzzle!

Once again at the North Pole, it's Christmas time! Frosty the Elf is Santa's right-hand man! He is in charge of all the elves in Santa's Workshop.

Santa is Eighty years younger than three times Frost the Elf's age. If you add twice Santa's age to three times Frosty the Elf's age, the total is six hundred and five.

This Christmas, can you work out:

a) How old is Santa?

b) How old is Frosty the Elf?

Merry Christmas! :biggrin:
I won't spoil it for anyone else but it isn't very difficult is it?!
