Let the daughter age = x
and mother age = 5x
After 5 years
daughter age = x+5
mother age = 5x+5
ATQ
3(x +5) = 5x+5
3x +15 = 5x +5
15-5 = 5x-3x
10 = 2x
10/2 =x
5 = x
daughter age is 5
Mother age = 5x = 5*5 =25
and mother age = 5x
After 5 years
daughter age = x+5
mother age = 5x+5
ATQ
3(x +5) = 5x+5
3x +15 = 5x +5
15-5 = 5x-3x
10 = 2x
10/2 =x
5 = x
daughter age is 5
Mother age = 5x = 5*5 =25
