The ages of a mother and daughter are 31 and 7 years respectively.
\n" ); document.write( "In how many years will the mother's age be 3/2 times that of daughter
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = no. of years for this to be true
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y + mothers age = \"3%2F2\"* y + daughter's age
\n" ); document.write( "the equation
\n" ); document.write( "y + 31 = \"3%2F2\"(y + 7)
\n" ); document.write( "Get rid of the denominator, multiply both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( "2(y+31) = 3(y+7)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2y + 62 = 3y + 21
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "62 - 21 = 3y - 2y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = 41 yrs for this to be true
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "See if it works out
\n" ); document.write( "41 + 31 = \"3%2F2\"(41+7
\n" ); document.write( "72 = \"3%2F2\"(48)
\n" ); document.write( "72 = 3(24); confirms our solution
