how old are each of the 3 men? explain in your own words of how u get the answer

Ages of Mark, Brett and Carl are 80 years, 60 years and 70 years respectively.

Solution:

Given that

Brett is 18 years younger than Mark.

Carl is 10 years younger than Mark.

The sum of the ages of Brett, Mark, and Carl is 212

Need to determine age of Brett, Mark, and Carl.

Let assume age of mark in years be represented by variable x

As it is given that Brett is 18 years younger than Mark , so if we subtract 18 from the age of Mark we will get age of Brett ,

=> Age of Brett = x – 18

Also given that Carl is 10 years younger than Mark , so if we subtract 10 from the age of Mark we will get age of Carl ,

=> Age of Carl = x – 10

Given sum of ages of Brett, Mark, and Carl is 212

=> Age of Mark + Age of Brett + Age of Carl = 212

=> x + ( x – 18 ) + ( x – 10) = 212

=> 3x – 28 = 212

=> 3x = 212 + 28

Age of Mark = x = 80 years

Age of Brett = x – 18 = 80 – 18 = 62 years

Age of Carl = x – 10 = 80 – 10 = 70 years

Hence Ages of Mark , Brett and Carl are 80 years, 60 years and 70 years respectively.
