Answer:
78, 48 and 23
Step-by-step explanation:
let age of Rita's mother be x
Rita's age = (x - 20)
Rita's daughter's age = x-20-25 = (x - 45)
sum of their ages is 169
so,
x + (x-20) + (x -45) = 169
3x - 65 = 169
3x = 169 + 65
3x = 234
x = 78
Rita's mother's age = x = 78
Rita's age = (x - 20) = 58
Rita's daughter's age = (x - 45) = 33
