Question

jojo is twice as Old as esi who in turn is five years older than kweku . if their total age is 47,how is each of them​

Answer 1

jojo is 26

esi is 13

and kweku is 8 years old.

Explanation:

Let esi's age be x then jojo's age is 2x.

Also kweku's age is x - 5. as esi is 5 years older than kweku.

So x + 2x + x - 5 = 47

4x = 47 + 5 = 52

x = 13.

So jojo's age is 2*13 = 26 and kweku's age is 13 - 5 = 8.
