Ages of swapna and suma are 33 and 7 years old respectively
- Let the present age of Swapna be x
- Let the age of Suma be y
If Swapna is 26 years older than her daughter Suma, then;
x = y + 26 ............... 1
6 years later:
Age of Swapna = x + 6
Age of Suna = y + 6
If Swapna will be thrice as old as Suma, then;
x + 6 = 3(y + 6) ................. 2
Substitute equation 1 into 2:
y + 26 + 6 = 3y + 18
y + 32 = 3y + 18
-2y = -14
y = 7
Since x = y + 26
x = 26 + 7
x = 33
Hence ages of swapna and suma are 33 and 7 years old respectively
