KOJO IS TWICE AS OLD AS ESI WHO IN TURN IS 5 YEAR OLDER THAN KWEKU. IF THEIR TOTAL AGE IS 47,HOW OLD IS EACH OF THEM
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let Kweku be \"x\" yrs. old.
\n" ); document.write( "Then ESI is \"x+5\" yrs old
\n" ); document.write( "And KOJO is 2(x+5) yrs old
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "x + x+5 + 2x+10 = 47
\n" ); document.write( "4x+15 = 47
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 32
\n" ); document.write( "x = 8 (Kweku's age)
\n" ); document.write( "x+5 = 13 (ESI's age)
\n" ); document.write( "2x+10 = 26 (Kojo's age)
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
