Solution

Let Sheela age be x
Then her mother's age is (x+4)×2
And her brother age is x+2/3
Now, we know the Sheela age is 13 year.
So, her mother's age is (13+4)×2=17×2=34 year.
And her brother age is
=13+2/3=15/3=5
So,
Sheela is 13 years.
Her mother is 34 years.
Her brother is 5 years.
Hence, this is the answer.
