Let Baichung's father age be x
Then,
Age of Baichung = x - 29
Age of Baichung's Grandfather = x + 26
It is given that sum of their ages = 135
=> x + x - 29 + x + 26 = 135
=> 3x - 3 = 135
=> 3x = 138
=> x = 46
BAICHUNG'S FATHER AGE = 46
BAICHUNG'S AGE = 46 - 29 => 17
BAICHUNG'S GRANDFATHER'S AGE = 46 + 26 => 72

Assume: baichung = x
baichung's father = y
baichung's grandfather = z
y = z - 26
z = y + 26
y = x + 29
x = y - 29
x + y + z = 135
(y - 29) + y + (y + 26) = 135
3y - 3 = 135
3y = 135 + 3
3y = 138
y = 138 : 3
y = 46
z = y + 26
z = 46 + 26
z = 72
x = y - 29
x = 46 - 29
x = 17
Baichung age is 17 years old
Baichung's father age is 46 years old
Baichung's grand father age is 72 years old
baichung's father = y
baichung's grandfather = z
y = z - 26
z = y + 26
y = x + 29
x = y - 29
x + y + z = 135
(y - 29) + y + (y + 26) = 135
3y - 3 = 135
3y = 135 + 3
3y = 138
y = 138 : 3
y = 46
z = y + 26
z = 46 + 26
z = 72
x = y - 29
x = 46 - 29
x = 17
Baichung age is 17 years old
Baichung's father age is 46 years old
Baichung's grand father age is 72 years old
