Answer 2

Hi friends


Here is your answer

Let the mother age is 7x years

Daughter age is 2x years

Four years ago

Mother's age is 7x - 4

Daughter age is 2x - 4

ATQ
$(7x - 4) = 6(2x - 4) \\ \\ 7x - 4 = 12x - 24 \\ \\ 12x - 7x = 24 - 4 \\ \\ 5x = 20 \\ \\ x = \frac{20}{5} \\ \\ x = 4$
Hence
Mother's age is = 7×5
= 35 years

Daughter age is = 2×5
= 10 years

Hope it helps you
