Answer:

The granddaughter is 6 years old and the grandfather is 60 years old.

Step-by-step explanation: Present the age of the granddaughter as X years.

10x = x + 54

10x - x = 54

9x = 54

x = 54/9 = 6 years.

So, granddaughter’s age = 6 years and grandfather’s age = 10 x 6 = 60 years.

Hope this helps love! ^-^
