Renuka got married 8 years ago. Today her age is 4/3 times of marriage.
If her age at time of marriage was x, then
x*4/3 = x+8x/3=8
x=24 yrs
Her present age = 24+8=32 yrs
Daughter's age = 32/8= 4 years

Go with backtracking method..
her daughter's age is 4 yrs means=(32/8)
her mother's age is 32 years now.
let at the time of marriage her age was x.
so according to ques, x*4/3=32
or, x=24
so at the time of her marriage her age was 24 yrs
after 8 yrs means now her age is 32
and her daughter's age is 4
