The correct Answer is:
To find your mother's age based on the information given, we can follow these steps: 1. **Identify your age**: According to the problem, your age is given as 6 years. 2. **Calculate your father's age**: The problem states that your father is six times older than you. Therefore, we can calculate your father's age as follows: \[ \text{Father's Age} = 6 \times \text{Your Age} = 6 \times 6 = 36 \text{ years} \] 3. **Calculate your mother's age**: The problem also states that your mother is 4 years younger than your father. We can find your mother's age by subtracting 4 years from your father's age: \[ \text{Mother's Age} = \text{Father's Age} - 4 = 36 - 4 = 32 \text{ years} \] Thus, your mother's age is **32 years**.
