Answer:
Let Bachung’sfather age = x year
Bachung’s age = x – 29 years
Bachung’s grandfather age = x+26 years
according to question,
x + x – 29 + x + 26 = 135
3x – 3 = 135
3x = 138
x = 138/3
x = 46
so, Bachung’s father age= x = 46 years
Bachung’s age = x – 29
=46 – 29
= 17 years
Bachung’s grandfather’s age = x + 26
= 46 + 26
= 72 years
