Question

The sum of present ages of Sunita and her mother
is 52 years. Alter six years mother's age will be
two and half times the age of Sunita then.
Find their present ages.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us consider present age of sunita is x. Then present of her mother age would be 52 -x(Because their sum is 52).

Now after 6 year,

Sunita age after 6 year : x+6

Her mother age after 6 year: 52-x+6

Now mother'a age will be two and half(5/2) times age of Sunita. So

$52-x+6 = (5/2) (x+6)\\104 - 2x+12 = 5x+30\\7x = 116 - 30\\x = 12.2$

Now take the base value of x which is 12.

Sunita's present age is 12 and her mother age is 40.
