Seven years ago, my mother was seven times older than me.
In exactly eight years from now, my mother will be two times older than me.
How old is my mother now?
Let your mother's age now = M Let your age now =A M - 7 =7*(A - 7), (M+8) =2*(A+8). solve for A, M A = 10 years - your age now M = 28 years - your mother's age now.
