Answer provided by our tutors

George's father is cube root 5 times younger than his grandfather.

father's age = cube root 5  x grandfather's age.

We know that his grandfather is 84 years old.

So father's age = cube root 5  x 84.

Now George is 3 times younger than his father:

George's age =  father's age / 3

=  cube root 5  x 84 /3

=  47.88

= 48
