Answer:

She is 60 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we can do is convert each fraction to have a common denominator. The LCM of 5, 3, and 4 is 60.

[tex]\frac{1}{4} =\frac{15}{60}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3} =\frac{20}{60}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{5} =\frac{12}{60}[/tex]

Add the numerators:

[tex]15+12+20=47/60[/tex]

Meaning that the time she lived in Switzerland is the remaining 13/60, and since she lived there for 13 years that means she lived for a total of 60 years because the numerator and denominator both equal 60.
