boys father is 26years younger than boy's grandfather and 29years older than boy the sum of there three ages is 135years what is the each one age
***
let x=father's age
x+26=grandfather's age
x-29=boy's age
x+(x+26)+(x-29)=135
3x-3=135
3x=138
x=46
x+26=72
x-29=19
father's age=46
grandfather's age=72
boy's age=17
