Answer 1

Answer:

the mother age is 40 Years

Answer 2

Answer:

33.3 years

Explanation:

Let the daughter's age be x and the mother's age be y

According to the question,

2x+y=60. eqn(1)

also, x+2y=82. eqn(2)

multiplying the eqn(2) by 2, we get,

2x+4y=164. eqn(3)

now, eqn(3)-eqn(1)

we get 3y=100

y=33.3
