Answer 2

HEY Buddy....!! here is ur answer

Answer : 45 years and 15 years

Given that : The sum of ages of mother and her daughter is 60 and daughter age is one third of her mother.

Let, the present age of mother = x years and age of daughter = y years

According to the question :

$x + y = 60....(1) \\ \\ \frac{x}{3} = y = > x = 3y....(2)$

On solving these equations :

On putting the value of x in equation (1)

$3y + y = 60 \\ \\ = > 4y = 60 \\ \\ = > y = 15$

So, the age daughter will be 15 years.

Now, putting the value of y in equation (1)

$x = 60 - 15 \\ \\ = > x = 45$

So, the present age of mother will be 45 years.

I hope it will be helpful for you...!!
