Yes
To solve this problem, let's first find out the current age of Ade and his mother.
Three years ago, Ade was 5 years old. This means that his current age is 5 + 3 = 8 years old.
Since Ade's mother was 5 times his age three years ago, we can calculate her age as follows:
Mother's age three years ago = Ade's age three years ago × 5 = 5 × 5 = 25 years old.
Using the same logic, we can find her current age by adding 3:
Mother's current age = 25 + 3 = 28 years old.
Now, to determine their ages in four years' time, we will add 4 to their current ages:
Ade's age in four years' time = Ade's current age + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12 years old.
Mother's age in four years' time = Mother's current age + 4 = 28 + 4 = 32 years old.
Therefore, in four years' time, Ade will be 12 years old, and his mother will be 32 years old.
