Question

the present age of vijayas mother is four times the present age of vijaya after six years the sum of their ages will be 62 years find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The present age:

Let the vijaya age be x

Her mother's age will be 4x

After 6 years

Vijaya's age will be x+6

Her mother's age will be 4x+6

There total age is 62

So, x+6+4x+6=62

5x+12=62

5x=62-12

5x=50

x=50/5

x=10

As x=10

So,

Vijaya's present age is 10 years

And her mother's age is 40 years

Answer 2

Present age of vijaya = 10 years

Present age of vijaya's mother = 40 years

To find -

Let the present age of vijaya be - x

See the following picture in attachment

Sum of their ages after 6 years =

( x + 6 ) + ( 4x + 6)

= x + 6 + 4x + 6

= 5x + 12

But it is actually given as their ages after 6 years is 62

5x + 12 = 62

5x = 62 - 12

5x = 50

$x = \frac{50}{5} = 10$

Present age of vijaya = x = 10

present age of vijaya mother = 4x = 4 x 10 = 40
