Jeruto was born when her mother was twenty seven years old and her father thirty years old. After how many years will the mean age of jeruto and her parents be in twentysix years

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of years be x. Therefore, their ages in x years will be:

Daughter = x

Mother = 27+x

Father = 30+x

Their mean age will then be:

[x + (27+x) + (30+x)]/3 = 26

(3x + 57) / 3 = 26

Cross multiply

3x + 57 = 26 × 3

3x + 57 = 78

3x = 78 - 57

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Therefore, the answer will be 7 years

Check: Daughter = x = 7 years

Mother = 27+x= 27+7 = 34 years

Father = 30+x = 30 + 7 = 37 years

Mean= (7+34+37) / 3 = 78/3 = 26 years
