HOPE IT HELP

Now Baichung's age is 17

Baichung's father age is 46

Baichung's Grandfather age is 72

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION

LET THE AGE OF BAICHUNG BE : X

NOW HIS FATHER AGE IS : X + 29

NOW HIS GRANDFATHER AGE : X + 29 +26

SO , ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION

X+X+29+X+29+26=135

3x + 84 = 135

3x = 135-84

3x=51

X=51÷3

X= 17

VERIFICATION

17 + 46 + 72

= 135

Answer 2

Let the age of Baichung’s father be x.

Then, the age of Baichung’s grandfather = (x+26)

and, Age of Baichung = (x-29)

According to the question,

x + (x+26) + (x-29) = 135

⇒ 3x + 26 – 29 = 135

⇒ 3x – 3 = 135

⇒ 3x = 135 + 3

⇒ 3x = 138

⇒ x = 138/3

⇒ x = 46

Age of Baichung’s father = x = 46

Age of Baichung’s grandfather = (x+26) = 46 + 26 = 72

Age of Baichung = (x-29) = 46 – 29 = 17
