Apparently there is a clue in the conversation, however I with my limited knowledge of english can't catch the hint or clue. Also, my teach said that he gave the problem to his Algebra 1 students, and they solved it. So it not suppose to be that hard.

Oh I get it.
George is the oldest, Frank is the middle age and the unknown is the youngest.
Frank is as close to George as the unknown is, in fact, george is equadistant between the youngest and the oldest.
Hmmm, This is going to bug me. I'll pen it out for a bit.
