A problem of age
Recently my mother met a women whom my mother hadn't seen for a long time.In course of conversation she said , "Do you know something very funny ? If you reverse my age,the figures represent my husbands age . He is, of course,senior to me and the difference between our age is one - eleventh of our sum." Can you find out the woman's as well as the husband's age?
Enter your answer as the sum of their ages.

How do you know that is true? Where is your working?
The woman's age is 45 and her husband's age is 54. Therefore the sum of their ages is 99.
