Answer:

After 9 years mother's age will be 3 times more than kofi's age .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Age of Kofi = 8 years

Age of Mother = 42 years

According to question , 3 times more than kofi's age .

=> ( 8+ x ) 3 = 42 + x

=> 24 + 3x = 42 + x

=> 3x - x = 42 - 24

=> 2x = 18

=> x = 18/2

=> 9

After 9 years ,

  • Age of Kofi = 8 + 9 = 17 years
  • Age of Mother = 42 + 9 = 51 years
