Heya!
PrincessAriana here!
Let Priya's age be x years.
Therefore, Priya's mothers's age will be 5x years.
After 5 years,
Priya's age will be (x+5) years.
Priya's mothers's age will be (5x+5) years.
Therefore, Btp,
(5x+5) = 3(x+5)
=> 5x + 5 = 3x + 15
=> 5x - 3x = 15 - 5
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 5
Priya's current age is 5 years.
Priya's mothers's current age is 5×5 = 25 years.
Hope this helps you mate!
