Two math professors meet at a party. One says: "Together we're 98 years old!". The other one answers: "I am twice as old as you were when I was as old as you are now!"
How old are these professors? Whole numbers only.

The younger is 42, and the older is 56. When the older was 42 (14 years ago) the younger was 28, which is half the older one's current age.
