The family ages all added up is 100 and the father is 50 the child is half the mothers age how old is the child and the mother
=================
The sum of the child and the mother is 50 (assuming there are only the 3 of them, which was not stated --> a poorly worded problem)
-------------
Child's age = 16 2/3
Mother's age = 33 1/3
