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.

Answer 1

Let the age of Nilu be X.

Then Mrs. Jain's age : X + 27

According to question,

After 8 years,

(X+ 35) = 2(X + 8)

Solving, we get:

X + 35 = 2X + 16

X = 19years.

Nilu's present age = 19 years

Mrs. Jain's age = 46 years

Hope it helps...❤️
