Answer 1

Hi friend!!

Let 'm' be the age of the mother.Let x,y,z be the sum of her three children's age .

Given m=4(x+y+z)

x+y+z=m/4----(1)

After 6 years , mother's age will be m+6, and her children age will be x+6,y+6,z+6

Given m+6=2(x+y+z+18)

substituting (1) ,we get

m+6=2(m/4)+36

m-30=m/2

m/2=30

m=60

Mother's age is 60 years

I hope this will help you ;)
