Let's say age of mother is M; age of Montell is m. m = M - 30 ---> first equation m + 5 = (M + 5) / 3 => m = ((M + 5) / 3) - 5 ---> second equation Equating the both equations, M - 30 = ((M + 5) / 3) - 5 =. M - 25 = (M + 5) / 3 => 3M - 75 = M + 5 => 3M - M = 5 + 75 => 2M = 80 => M = 40; m = M - 30 => m = 10 So the Mother's age is 40 years.
