The question is quite stupid.
m = present mother's age
d = present daugher's age
The ages of a mother and daughter are in ratio 8:5 means:
m / d = 8 / 5
Replace d by 15 in this equation.
m / 15 = 8 / 5
Cross multiply.
m • 5 = 15 • 8
5 m = 120
m = 120 / 5 = 24
Mother present age = 24
Daughter present age = 15
This means, the mother gave birth to her daughter when she was 9 years old???
Mother's age 6 yrs ago = 24 - 6 = 18
The ages of a mother and daughter are in ratio 8:5.if the daughters age now is 15, what was the mother's age 6 yrs ago
