Answer:
Let the Father's age be x
Monu's age = x - 29
Grandfather's age = x + 26
The sum of the ages of all three = 135
A/q
=> x + x - 29 + x + 26 = 135
=> 3x - 29 + 26 = 135
=> 3x - 3 = 135
=> 3x = 135 + 3
=> 3x = 138
=> x = 138/3 = 46
Hence,
Father's age = x = 46 years
Monu's age = x - 29 = 46 - 29 = 17 years
Grandfather's age = x + 26 = 46 + 26 = 72 years
