Let's say the age of mother is "m" &
the age of child is "c".
Now mother is 21 years older to child, which means:
21+c = m
In 6 years mother is 5 times older than child, which means
m+6 = 5 (c+6)
The result is c= -3/4. The age of child is -3/4 years.
So father should be together with mother. I think the answer you are expectig is now he is doing the reproduction with her.

X is the kid, and
Y is the Mom
X=Y+21
Restate the example: in 6 years (+6) the Mom is going to be 5 times as old as the kid.
X+6 = ((Y +21) +6) 5
substitute Y for X and get
(Y + 21) + 6 = ((Y + 21) + 6) 5
Y + 27 = (Y + 27) 5
Y + 27 = 5Y + 135
4Y = 108
Y = 27
MOM IS 27 YEARS OLD.
CHILD IS 1 YEAR OLD.
Where si the father? No se. Pero, no llame papa!
