If my mother is 54 years old, what year was she born in?

2008 - 54 = 1954

Date now is 28 October 2008:

If she was born October 28 or earlier:

= 2008 - 54

= 1954

Answer: 1954

If she was born later than October 28:

= 2008 + 1 - 54

= 2009 - 54

= 1955

Answer: 1955

2008 - 54 = 1954.

Your mother was born in 1954.

This is simple math.

2008 - 54 = 1954.

If she is already passed her birthday, then:

2008 - 54

= 1954

If not, then:

2007 - 54

= 1953

1954

if she's already had her birthday this year, which is likely, then she was born in 1954. if she will turn 55 by the end of the year, then she was born in 1953.

Discover the formula yourself by using your age and the year you were born...subtract your age from the current year , and see if that gives your birth year. Then apply the formula to your mother's age.
