Question

The ratio of ages of Abha and her mother is 2:5. At the time of Abha's birth her mother age was 27 year. Find the present ages of Abha and her mother​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let at present time age of Abha = x

at time of birth age of Abha = 0

at time of birth age of her mother = 27

when Abha will become x year's old her mother will become X+27

Thus

X+27

X

=

5

2

5X−2X=5M

X=18

Abha's age = 18 yrs

Mother's age = 18+27= 45 yrs.

Answer 2

Answer:

let present age of Abha is 2x years and her mother is 5x years

difference of their ages (5x-2x)years=3xyear

At the time of birth mother age was 27 years

so,

3x=27

=> x=27/3=9

present age of Abha is 2×9 years=18 years

present age of mother is 5×9years=45years
