Priya is five times older than her daughter reeta
so,
let ,the age of priya=5x
and the age of reeta=x
five years ago priya was nine times older than her daughter
so,
5x - 5 = 9(x - 5)
=>5x - 5 = 9x - 45
=>5x - 9x = -45 + 5
=> -4x = -40
=>4x = 40
=>x = 40/4
=>x = 10
Therefore,
present age of priya= x =10
present age of reeta=4x=4×10=40
so,
let ,the age of priya=5x
and the age of reeta=x
five years ago priya was nine times older than her daughter
so,
5x - 5 = 9(x - 5)
=>5x - 5 = 9x - 45
=>5x - 9x = -45 + 5
=> -4x = -40
=>4x = 40
=>x = 40/4
=>x = 10
Therefore,
present age of priya= x =10
present age of reeta=4x=4×10=40

- Step-by-step explanation:
- Let the Age of reeta = x
- Let the Age of priya = 5x
- 5 years ago priya was 9 times older than her daughter
- 5x-5=9(x-5)
- 5x-5=9x-45
- -4x=-40
- x= 40/4= 10
- Reeta age , x= 10 years
- priya's age = 5x×10 = 50 years.
Hope it helps you
