Hi,

Could you please check if the following sentences are correct?

1. My age is the double of John and Mike’s.

Very awkard. Idiomatically, I'd say 'I'm twice as old as John and Mike put together'.

2. Look at the other side of the car. Fine.

3. How good swimmers are you? Not wrong, but awkward.

I'd say

'How good is your swimming?'
