Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:let at present mother's age =x yrs

mira age= x/3 years

6years ago

mother age=(x-6) years

mira age = (x/3 - 6) years

given

5(x/3 -6)=(x-6)

5(x-18)/3=(x-6)

5x-90=3(x-6)

5x-90=3x-18

5x-3x=90-18

2x=72

x=72/2

x=36

now,

at present

mother's age=x=36 years

mira age =x/3=36/3=12 years
