Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let grandson's age be x.

Let grandpa's age be y {equation : y = 8+5x}

so,

x + y = 88

or, x + 8+ 5x = 88 (substituting the value of y)

or, 6x + 8 =88

or, 6x = 88-8

or, 6x = 80

or, x = 80/6

so, x = 13.33

so grandson's age = 13.33

grandpa's age = 8 + 5x = 8 + (5×13.33) = 74.65 yrs
