Solution:
Let the age of the person’s mother be ‘x’ units.
So, age of the person = (2x/5)
After 8 years, age of the person’s mother = ‘x + 8’ units.
So age of the person after 8 years = (2x/5) + 8
According to question:
(2x/5) + 8 = (a + 8)/2
=> (2x + 40)/5 = (a + 8)/2
=> 4a + 80 = 5a + 40
=>5a - 4a = 80 - 40
=> a = 40
So, the present age of his mother is 40 years.
