So for this, you might want to set up some equations.

The mom's variable is m and the daughter's is d.  

So now is it m=2d

And twenty years ago it was m-20=4(d-20)  which is the same as m-20=4d-80.

Simplify so it is m=4d-60. Now, plug it in as m in the first equation. 

4d-60=2d           2d=60        d=30  

Now, we know that the mom must be 60 and the daughter 30 years old.
