Hey,

Let suman's age be x, then her mother's age= 4x
after 20 years their age will be:suman's=x+20
mother'safter 20 years she will be twice suman's age. so:
4x+20=2(x+20)
=4x+20= 2x+40
=4x-2x=40-20
=2x=20
=x=10
therefore suman is 10 years old.

HOPE IT HELPS:-))

hi friend......

here is your answer......

______________________________________________________________

let,the present age of Suman is x yr.

so, suman's mother's age is 4x.

AFTER 20 YRS,

Suman's age will be (x+20)

so, Suman's mother's age will be (4x+20)

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION,

2(x+20) = (4x+20)

or, 2x +40 = 4x + 20

or,4x-2x = 40 - 20

or, 2x= 20

or, x =10

so, the present age of Suman is 10 yrs.
