EXPLANATION.
- GIVEN
Ram father is 26 years younger than Ram's grandfather and 29 years than ram.
The sum of the ages of all the three people = 135 years
SOLUTION.
Let the age of ram father age be x years
Ram age is = ( x - 29 )
his grandfather age is = ( x + 26 )
TO FIND THE AGE OF EACH OF THEM
According to the question,
The sum of age of three people = 135 years
Therefore,
x + x - 29 + x + 26 = 135
3x = 138
x = 46
Therefore,
Ram father age = 46 years
Ram age is = ( x - 29 )
46 - 29 = 17 years
Ram grandfather age is = ( x + 26 )
46 + 26 = 72 years

Let rams fathers age be =x
rams grandfather age =x+26
rams age =x-29
total age =135
x+x+26+x-29=135
3x+(+26-29)=135
3x+-3=135
3x=135-3
3x=132
x=132/3
x=44
rams fathers age =x=44
grandfather=x+26=44+26=70
rams age =x-29=44-29=15
