Answer 2

• Mother = 30 years old &
• Daughter = 6 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

• The present age of mother be 'a'

According to the question,

Person :- Now :- After 2 years :-

Daughter a a + 2

Mother 5a 5a + 2

We know that,

• 2 years later, Mother's age = 4 times of Daughter's age

Solving,

⟼ 5a + 2 = 4 (a + 2)

⟼ 5a + 2 = 4a + 8

⟼ 5a - 4a = 8 - 2

⟼ a = 6

➤ Present age of Daughter = 6 years

➤ Present age of Mother = 5a = 5 × 6 = 30 years.

• Mother = 30 years old &
• Daughter = 6 years old
