Steve is trying to figure out the ages of his 3 uncles.

Uncle Bill is twice as old as Uncle Tom. Uncle Keith is
5 more than Uncle Bill. He knows that the sum of their ages is 75.

What are the ages of his 3 uncles?

Respuesta :

Tom = 14
Bill = 28
Keith = 33


Tom = x
Bill = 2x
Keith = 2x+5

5x+5 = 75
5x = 70
x = 14

Tom = x = 14
Bill = 2x = 28
Keith = 2x+5 = 33
