Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Baichung’s father is 26 years younger than Baichung’s grandfather and 29 years older than Baichung. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years.
To Find :-
Age of each
Solution :-
Let the age of Baichung be B
Age of father = B + 26
Age of grandfather = B + 26 + 29
Age of grandfather = B + 55
Now
(B) + (B + 26) + (B + 55) = 135
3B + 81 = 135
3B = 135 - 81
3B = 54
B = 54/3
B = 18
Now
Age of Baichung = 18 years
Age of his father = 18 + 26 = 44 years
Age of grandfather = 18 + 55 = 73 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Find common denominator
2+8=18
\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{8}=\frac{1}{8}2x+8x=81
48+8=18
\frac{4x}{8}+\frac{x}{8}=\frac{1}{8}84x+8x=81
2
Combine fractions with common denominator
48+8=18
\frac{4x}{8}+\frac{x}{8}=\frac{1}{8}84x+8x=81
4+8=18
\frac{4x+x}{8}=\frac{1}{8}84x+x=81
3
Combine like terms
4+8=18
\frac{{\color{#c92786}{4x}}+{\color{#c92786}{x}}}{8}=\frac{1}{8}84x+x=81
58=18
