Lets suppose that after X years,
mother's age will be three by two times that of daughter's age.
Age of Mother = (31 + X) years
Age of Daughter = (7 + X) years
(31 + X) = 3/2 (7 + X)
=> 62 + 2X = 21 + 3X
=> 3X - 2X = 62 - 21
=> X = 41
Mother's age after 41 years = 31+41 = 72
Daughter's age after 41 years = 7+41 = 48
Ratio of ages of mother and daughter is
72 : 48 = 3 : 2 that after 41 years, mother's age will be three by two times of the daughter's age.

The current age of the mother is 31 years and that of the daughter is 7 years
Let us take that after x years, the mother's age will be 3/2 times of the daughter's age
After x years, the mother will be (31 + x) years old and the daughter will be (7 + x) years old
By the given condition,
31 + x = 3/2 (7 + x)
or, 2 (31 + x) = 3 (7 + x)
or, 62 + 2x = 21 + 3x
or, 3x - 2x = 62 - 21
or, x = 41
Therefore, in , the required conditions will be fulfilled.
