Question 1167241: Jaydens brother is 7 years older than jayden. His mother is 4 less than 3 times jaydens age. Their combined age is 103.How old is jayden his brother and his mother Answer by VFBundy(438) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Jayden's age = j
Jayden's brother's age = j + 7
Jayden's mother's age = 3j - 4
j + (j + 7) + (3j - 4) = 103
j + j + 7 + 3j - 4 = 103
5j + 3 = 103
5j = 100
j = 20
Jayden's age = j = 20
Jayden's brother's age = j + 7 = 20 + 7 = 27
Jayden's mother's age = 3j - 4 = 3(20) - 4 = 60 - 4 = 56
