Question

simmi's mother is 4 years younger than simmi's father. their total age is 84 years. what is the age of simmi's mother​

Answer 1

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of father be X

then the age of mother will be X-4

now

the sum of age of father and mother is 84

So, X+X-4=84

or,2X-4=84

or,2X=84+4

or,X=88/2

or,X=44

so,

the age of father = X= 44

and, age of mother =X-4

=44-4

=40
