The ages of the crew, Marty and Blakeley are 32 years, 48 years and 24 years respectively.

<h3>Algebra</h3>

Total = crew's age + Marty's age + blakely's age

104 = x + 1.5x + 0.75x

104 = 3.25x

x = 104 ÷ 3.25

x = 32 years

Therefore,

Crew's age = x

= 32 years

Marty's age = 1.5x

= 1.5(32)

= 48 years

Blakely's age = 0.75x

= 0.75(32)

= 24 years
