Question

Baichung's father is 26 years younger then Baichung's grandfather and 29 years older than Baichung. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years. What is the age of each one of them

Answer 1

Answer:

Baichung age = 17 years

Baichung's father age = 43 years

Baichung's grandfather age = 72 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of Baichung = x

then, Baichung's father age = x + 29

and Baichung's grandfather age

=x+29+26 = x + 55

so , A.T.Q

x + x + 29 + x + 55 = 135

3x + 84 = 135

3x = 135 - 84

3x = 51

x = 51/3

x = 17

so , Baichung age = x = 17 year

Baichung's father age = x + 26

= 17 + 26 = 43 year

and Baichung's grandfather age = x+55

= 17 + 55 = 72 year

Answer 2

Answer:

age of Baichung is x=18

age of father is x+26=44

age of grandfather is x+26+29,=73

Step-by-step explanation:

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

3x+81=135

3x=54

x=18
