Why do you use the word, "Differentiate"?


How do you want whose variable?
h for Hilda? m for Mother?
h=3m, but this makes no sense. Hilda or any offspring can not be of lesser age than the parent.

    the daughter is three times the age of her mother.

For your info  (in case if you do not understand  English words),  it is absurd.
