Answer 1

Answer:

Allana is 2 1/2 and her mother is 15 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Allana's age be x years then,

her mother's age is 6x.

Using the given information in ten years time we have the equation:-

6x + 10 = 2(x + 10)

6x + 10 = 2x + 20

6x - 2x = 20 - 10

4x = 10

x = 2 1/2

So 6x = 6 * 2 1/2 = 15.
