Priya doesn't feel she is really a child anymore. Ten years ago, her mother was five times her age. Now she is three sevenths of her mother's age, and in five years she will be half her mother's age.
How old will she be when she is half her mother's age?
let priya Present age be x years and her mother's Present age be y years;;;;
( y-10 )= 5*( x -10 ) and x= (3/7)*y
solving we get x= 15 , y = 35 ,, so after 5 years x= 20 , she will be half of her mother's age
