Question 1138832: bobby is four times as old as his son tommy. Charlie is two years older than his brother bobby. If the sum of all their ages is 101, how old are each of them Answer by Olasko(10) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let Tommy's age be t
bobby = 4t
charlie = 4t + 2
sum of thier ages is 101
4t + 4t + 2 + t = 101
9t = 99
t = 11
Tommy is 11yrs old
Bobby is 44yrs old
Charlie is 46yrs old
