Question

the age of appu's mother is nine times that of appu. after nine years, it would be three times. what are their ages now?​

Answer 1

Answer:

This question I answered I must admit getting it correct with my very first attempt at guessing and working it out from there. I first guessed that if it were possible for the child to be nine times younger than the mother I guessed that at 5 years old if I multiplied this by nine I would get 45 as my answer to the mothers age and so from 45 I had to be sure that if in another 5 years the mother were 50 years old I then divided 50 by the 5 times and sure enough the answer was 10 years old in 5 years from the daughters age which is the same as 5 years plus 5 years . My sums all added up and so I submit 45 years as the mothers age. However another way to look at it is in 5 years the mother will be 5 times her own age which makes 5 that you must devise that if you divide by five the number that was the multiple the mother at this point is actually less than 1 year old as 1 multiplied by 5 is 5 that is the age she shall be in 5 years therefore take 5 away would be 0 and then 0+ 5 = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

45 years old.

Let daughter age=x

So, now mother's age= 9x.

After five years,

The daughter age will be =x+5, and

Mother's age will be=5(x+5).

Now, we know that the difference between the above two ages of mother is 5 years. Mathematically it is;

5(x+5)-9x=5

5x+25–9x=5

-4x=-20

X=5,

We know that now mother's age is 9x

So, 9x=9(5)=45 years. And in five years the mother's age will be 50 and daughter will be 10 years old and then mother's age will be five time of daughter, so this fulfilled both conditions of the question. The mother age is 45 years
