Sudo: 3 Wrong Password Attempts Error

screenshot of terminal when using sudo

I get this error whenever I use sudo on the terminal, because of which I cannot edit any file (permission problems), and in addition, I cannot update my system. Is there any specific solution without reinstalling the system?
