Question

Hima’s mother is thrice as old as Hima. After ten years , she will be just twice as old as her

daughter. What are their present ages?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hima is 10 years and her mother is 30.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let Hima's age be x

mother's age be 3x

age after 10 years for Hima x + 10

mother's age be 3x + 10

ATQ

$3x + 10 = 2(x+10)\\\\3x+10=2x+20\\\\3x-2x=20-10\\\\x=10$

Thus Hima's present age is 10 yrs

&

Mother's age is 3(10) = 30 yrs
