Question

Present age of mother is 48years and that of his daughter is 12years. Find the ratio of:

a) Age of the mother to the age of daughter when daughter is 8 years old.

b) Age of mother after 2 years to the age of daughter after 2years.

c) Age of mother to the age of daughter when the mother is 40 years​​​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:--

Age of mother= 48years

Age of the daughter=12years

_____________________________________

a.) Daughter age= 8 years

then,

age gap between daughter present age and past age= 12-8=4

mother age 4 years ago= 48-4= 44 years

Ratio of mother age to daughter age = 44/8= 11/2

Ratio of mother age to daughter age is 11:2

_______________________________________

b.) After 2 years

Age of mother = 48+2= 50 years

Age of daughter= 12+2= 14

Ratio of the age of mother age to daughter age= 50/14=25/7

Ratio of the age of mother age to daughter age is 25:7

_______________________________________

c.) Age of mother=40 years

age gap between present age and past age = 48-40= 8 years

Daughter age 8 years ago= 12-8=4 years

Ratio of the age of the mother to age of the daughter=40/4=10/1

Ratio of the age of the mother to the age of daughter is 10:1

I hope this helps you ^_^

Answer 2

a) Daughter age = 8 years

12 - 8 = 4

Mother age = 48 - 4 = 44 years

= 44/8

= 11/2

Ratio is 11:2

b) After 2 years

Age of mother = 48 +2 = 50

Age of Daughter = 12 +2 = 14 years

Ratio of age of the mother to age of Daughter = 25:7 years

c) Mother age = 40 years

= 48 - 40 = 8 years

= 12-8 = 4 years

Ratio of age of mother to age of the daughter = 10:1 years
