Define their age 4 years ago:
Arya = x
Mother = 3x
Define their age now:
Arya = x + 4
Mother = 3x + 4
.
Define their age 6 years later:
Arya = x + 4 + 6 = x + 10
Mother = 3x + 4 + 6 = 3x + 10
.
Define the equation and find x:
3x + 10 = 2(x + 10)
3x + 10 = 2x + 20
x = 10
.
Find their present age:
Arya = x + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14 years old
Mother = 3x + 4 = 3(10) + 4 = 34 years old
.
Answer: Arya is 14 years old and the mother is 34 years old
