Question 586267
A girl asks her mother's age and is told, 6 years ago I was 9 times your age now I am only 3 times your age. What are the present ages of the girl and mother 
-----------------
Equations:
(m-6) = 9d
m = 3d
-----------
Substitute for "m" and solve for "d":
3d-6 = 9d
6d = -6
d = -1 (that'doesn't make sense for her daughter's age)
------------
