Ramiz and Shanil’s average age is 65 years. The average age of Ramiz, Shanil, and Jamil is 53 years. The age of Jamil is ______?

Answer: 29 years
Explanation
Let's denote the ages of Ramiz, Shanil, and Jamil as R, S, and J respectively.
Given:
1. (R + S) / 2 = 65
R + S = 130
2. (R + S + J) / 3 = 53
R + S + J = 159
Now, substitute R + S = 130 into the second equation:
130 + J = 159
J = 159 - 130
J = 29
