Question

Mrs Jain is 27 years older than her daughter Nilu. After 8 years she will be twice as old as Nilu. Find their present ages?


Please help i have my home work due today

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the present age of Nilu be x years

Therefore the present age of Nilu’s mother = (x + 27) years

So, after 8 years,

Nilu’s age = (x + 8), and Mrs Jain’s age = (x + 27 + 8) = (x+35) years

⇒ x + 35 = 2(x + 8)

Expanding the brackets, we get

⇒ x + 35 = 2x + 16

Transposing x to RHS and 16 to LHS, we get

⇒ 35 – 16 = 2x – x

⇒ x = 19

So, the present age of Nilu = x = 19 years,

And the present age of Nilu’s mother that is Mrs Jain = x+ 27 = 19 + 27 = 46year
