Answer:
Rakhi's Age = 10 years
Rakhi's Mother Age = 40 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Rakhi's age be X
and Rakhi's mother age be Y
Given, Y = 4X ------------------------ eq. (1)
Now,
Y + 5 = 3(X + 5)
Y + 5 = 3X + 15
Y = 3X + 10 --------------------------- eq. (2)
Comparing equation (1) & (2) we get,
4X = 3X + 10
⇒ 4X - 3X = 10
⇒ X = 10 (Rakhi's age)
Putting the value of X in eq. (1) we get
Y = 4 x 10 = 40 (Rakhi's Mother age)
