Answer:

54 years

Explanation:

If we want to know how to solve for the number of years a crow can live, we can use this equation:

(27 ÷ 3) + 45 =?

We can first solve for 27 divided by 3.

(27 ÷ 3) + 45 =?

9 + 45 =?

Now solve for 9 plus 45:

9 + 45 = 54

Therefore, if a woodpecker can live 27 years, a swallow 3 times less, and a crow 45 years longer than the swallow, we can say that a crow can live for 54 years.
