Required answer:
- Veena's present age = 7 years
- Mother's present age = 28 years
Given Information:
- Present age of Veena's mother is four times veena's age. 5 years hence, her mother age will be 21 years more than Veena's age.
Need to find out:
- Veena's present age = ?
- Mother's present age = ?
Let present age of Veena = y years
- Veena's mother's age = 4y years
After five years,
- Veena's age = y + 5 years
- Mother's age = 4y + 5 years
According to the problem,
=> 4y + 5 = y + 5 + 21
=> 3y = 21
=> y = 21/3
=> y = 7 years
Therefore,
- Veena's present age is 7 years.
And,
- Mother's present age = 7 × 4
- Mother's present age is 28 years
