Let nisha's present age be x,
Asha's present age =x 2+2
When Nisha turns her mother's age, x
2+2−x years have passed. Asha's age =10x−1
⇒x
2+2−x = 10x−1−[x 2+2]
⇒2x 2
−11x+5=0
⇒(x−5)∗(2x+1)=0
⇒(x−5)=0 or (2x+1)=0
⇒x=5 or x= 2−1
Since age can not be negative,
x=5 is the right answer.
Nisha's age is 5, Asha's age is 27
Sum of their present ages =5+27=32
