Reema's mother is four times as old as Reema. After 5 years her mother will be 3 times as old as she will be then. find their present ages​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Reema's present age be x yrs

then her mother's age is 4x yrs

After 5yrs

Reema's age x+5

her mother's age 4x+5

According to the question

3(x+5)=(4x+5)

3x+15=4x+5

3x-4x+15=5

-x=5-15

-x= -10

x=10

Her present age is 10 yrs and her mother's present age is 40 yrs

Answer 2

Answer:

Age of Reema = 10 years

Age of Reema's mother = 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Reema be x years and her mother's present age be 4x years.

Then,

After 5 years:

Reema age = (x+5) years

Reema's mother age = (4x+5) years

A/q

4x+5 = 3(x+5)

4x+5 = 3x+15

4x-3x = 15-5

x = 10

Hence, age of Reema = x years = 10 years

and age of Reema's mother = 4x years = (4×10) years = 40 years
