Answer»

Answers

✩ Present AGE of Ashiwini = 23  YEARS .

✩ Present age of Ashiwini's mother = 51 years.

SOLUTION

Let us Assume that the Present age of Ashiwini as 'x' years.

Case :- 1

The age of Ashwini's mother is 5years more Than twice of Ashwini's Age.

\implies

The Present age of Ashwini's mother = 2x + 5 \longrightarrow(1)

Case :- 2

After 10 years, her mother's age will be 08 years LESS than thrice her age.

\implies

Age of Ashwini's mother after 10 years = 3X - 8\longrightarrow(2)

We have found in (1) that the present age of Ashwini's mother is 2x + 5 , so after 10 years it will be

2x + 5 + 10 = 2x + 15 \longrightarrow(3)

Now, Let us equate Equations (2) and (3)

\implies

2x + 15 = 3x - 8

\implies

3x - 2x = 15 + 8

\implies

x = 23 years

Present age of  Ashiwini (x) = 23 years.

Now , we can FIND the present age of Ashwini's mother by substituting 'x' as 23 in Equation (1) .

\implies

The Present age of Ashwini's mother = 2 × 23 + 5

\implies

The Present age of Ashwini's mother = 46 + 5

\implies

The Present age of Ashwini's mother =  51 years.
