Sally is 10 years older than one fifth of her mother’s age. If Sally is 20 years old, how old is her mother?
slamgirl [31]

S = Sally

M = Mother

S = M/5 + 10

20 = M/5 + 10

20 - 10 = M/5

10 = M/5

M = 10 * 5

M = 50

----------------

Her mother is 50 yo

-----------------

50 : 5 + 10 = 20

the answer is good
