Answer: Angelo is 13 years old.

Aaron is 15 years old

Alfred is 34 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the age of Angelo.

Let y represent the age of Aaron.

Let z represent the age of Alfred

The sum of three guys ages is 62. It means that

x + y + z = 62 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Angelo is two years younger than Aaron. It means that

x = y - 2

Alfred is four years older than twice Aaron's age. It means that

z = 2y + 4

Substituting x = y - 2 and z = 2y + 4 into equation 1, it becomes

y - 2 + y + 2y + 4 = 62

4y + 2 = 62

4y = 62 - 2 = 60

y = 60/4 = 15

x = y - 2 = 15 - 2

x = 13

z = 2y + 4 = 2 × 15 + 4

z = 34
