Matthew has three brothers: Alex, Mark, and Luke. The sum of their three ages is 12. List all the different combinations of ages that Matthew's brothers could be.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Alex's age = x

Mark's age = y

Luke's age = a

x + y + z = 12

The possible combinations for their age are

1. 6, 3, 3

2. 3, 3, 6

3. 4,4, 4

4, 2, 2, 8

5. 8, 2, 2

6. 2, 8, 2

7. 9, 2, 1

Etc the age can keep going as long as you can find any three numbers and add them to give you 12
