Question

5 years ago A mother was 7 times as old as her daughter 5 years hence he will be 3 times as old as her daughter find their present age

Answer 1

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

5years

daughter age =x-5

mother age 7(x-5)=7x-35

At present

daughter agr =x-5+5=x

mother age =7x-35 +5=7x -25

5Years hence

mother age =7x -30+5=7x-25

but according to the question after years mother will be thrice daughter age

=7x-25=3(x+5)

=7x-25=c+15

=7x-3x=15+25

=4x=40

=40/4

x=10

Daughter present age =x=10 years

mother present age =7x-30=7 (10)-30

=70-30=40years
