If the relative ages of two formations are known, it can be inferred that one formation is older or younger than the other. By using this information in combination with the Law of Superposition, which states that in a sequence of undisturbed rock layers, the oldest layer is at the bottom and the youngest layer is at the top, the relative positions of the formations in the sequence of rock layers can be determined.
