Adeyemi who is 15 years old is 3 years younger than his younger brother ojo if olade the eldest brother is 21 years old what is the average age of the three brothers

Answer 1

Let's find the ages of the three brothers:

1. Adeyemi is 15 years old.
2. Ojo is 3 years younger than Adeyemi, so Ojo's age is: \[ 15 - 3 = 12 \text{ years old.} \]
3. Olade is the eldest brother at 21 years old.

Now we have the ages:

• Adeyemi: 15 years
• Ojo: 12 years
• Olade: 21 years

To find the average age of the three brothers, we add their ages together and then divide by the number of brothers:

\[ \text{Total Age} = 15 + 12 + 21 = 48 \]

\[ \text{Average Age} = \frac{48}{3} = 16 \]

So, the average age of the three brothers is 16 years old.
