Step-by-step explanation:

The answer you attached to the question is correct and it does not need any additional input.

However, I'll explain each line for you

This line checks if age is less than 18

if (age < 18) {

This line increases minors by 1

minors = minors + 1;

}

This line checks if age is between 18 and 64

else if (age > 17 && age < 65) {

This line increases adult by 1

adults = adults + 1;

}

This line checks if age is greater than 18

else {

This line increases seniors by 1

seniors = seniors + 1;

}
