Answer:

The mother is 3d older than the daughter

Explanation:

Given

Represent the mother's age with m

and

The daughter's age with d

Required

Determine how much older is the mother

First, we need to calculate the mother's age


m = 4 * d


m = 4d

Next, we calculate their age difference


Age\ Difference = m - d

Substitute 4d for m, we have:


Age\ Difference = 4d - d


Age\ Difference = 3d

Hence, the mother is 3d older than the daughter
