Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

+x+Let, Baichung's age = x years His father's age=x+29 years His grandfather' age=x+29+26 years Sum of their ages=135 years x+x+29+x+29+26=135 3x+84=135 3x=135-84 3x=51 x=51/3 x=17 Therefore, Baichung's age= 17years His Father's age=17+29=46 years His grandfather's age=17+29+26=72 years.(to check add all the three age(it will be 135 years)).

Answer 2

let the Biachungs age is equal to X and his father age is X + 26 and his grandfather age is equal to X + 26 + 29
X + X + 26 + X + 26 + 29 = 135
3x+81= 135
3x=135-81
3x=54
x=54/3
x=18
baichungs age is equal to 18 is father age is equal to 44 and his grandfather age is equal to 73 .
