let the age of girl be x
mother age= y
father age = z

equations formed according to the question are
x= (1/2)y______(1)
z= y+5______(2)
and
x+y+z = 100______(3)

putting values of x and z from (1) and (2) I (3) we get,

(1/2)y +y+5 = 100
(y/2)+2y+5 = 100

(y+4y+10)/2= 100

5y + 10 = 200
5y = 200-10
5y= 190
y= 38


putting value of y in (1) and (2) we get,

x= (y/2) => x= (38/2)
x= 19

z= y+5
z= 38+5
z= 43

girl's age is 19
mother's age is 38
father's age is 43

hope this helps you
