Question
B is 3 years older than A and A is 7 years older than C.
If the sum of the age of A and C is 27 years, then find the sum of the ages of all three.ÂSolution
Let C’s present age be x years. So, A’s present age = (x + 7) years And B’s present age = (x + 7 + 3) = (x + 10) years According to question, => x + 7 + x = 27 => 2x = 20 => x = 10 Required total sum = x + (x + 7) + (x + 10) = 3x + 17 = 47 years Â
