Let Kamel's Father's age be x years
So,
Kamel's age be (x - 29) years
Kamel's Grand Father's age be (x + 26) years
According to Question,
Sum of ages = 135 years
x + (x - 29) + (x + 26) = 135
⇒ x + x - 29 + x + 26 = 135
⇒ 3x - 3 = 135
⇒ 3x = 135 + 3
⇒ 3x = 138
⇒ x = 138 / 3
⇒ x = 46
Required Ages -
Kamal's age = x - 29 = 46 - 29 = 17 years
Kamal's Father's age = x = 46 years
Kamal's Grand Father's age = x + 26
= 46 + 26 = 72 years
Hence, Kamal's age is 17 years, Kamal's Father's age is 46 years and Kamal's Grand Father's age is 72 years
So,
Kamel's age be (x - 29) years
Kamel's Grand Father's age be (x + 26) years
According to Question,
Sum of ages = 135 years
x + (x - 29) + (x + 26) = 135
⇒ x + x - 29 + x + 26 = 135
⇒ 3x - 3 = 135
⇒ 3x = 135 + 3
⇒ 3x = 138
⇒ x = 138 / 3
⇒ x = 46
Required Ages -
Kamal's age = x - 29 = 46 - 29 = 17 years
Kamal's Father's age = x = 46 years
Kamal's Grand Father's age = x + 26
= 46 + 26 = 72 years
Hence, Kamal's age is 17 years, Kamal's Father's age is 46 years and Kamal's Grand Father's age is 72 years
