    Answer:

    The fourth person is 34 years old.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Find ages of the 3 people running for election

    42*3=126  Their ages combined is 126.

    Step 2: Find the ages of the 4 people running for election.

    40*4=160

    Step 3: Subtract the two ages.

    160-126=34.  

    The 4th person is 34.
