Open in App
Solution

Let Asmi's present age x than her mother's age x+25

After 15 years, Asmi's age =x+15

After 15 years, Asmi's mother's age =x+40

According to condition

2(x+15)=x+40

x=10 years

Mothers age=x+25=10+25=35 years

Hence, Asmi's present age is 10 years and her mother's present age is 35 years.
