Answer:

Storm is 35, Cyclops is 33 and Wolverine is 38.

Step-by-step explanation:

W, S and C represent the agres of Wolverine, Storm and Cyclops.

W = S + 3

C = S - 2

W + S + C = 106

Making the indicated substitutions, we get:

(S + 3) + S + (S - 2) = 106

Combining like terms:

3S + 1 = 106, and 3S = 105.  Thus,

S = 35, C = 35 - 2, and W = S + 3.

Storm is 35, Cyclops is 33 and Wolverine is 38.
