Question of the Day #333 (31/8/10)

[Kazza]

Nobody knows how old Mrs Fothergill is but she gave a few hints. She had passed 1/20 of her life before she started school. She spent 3/20 of her life in school; She worked for 1/10 of her life before she got married. She was married for 2/5 of her life. Her husband died after 7/10 of her life.

From reading Mr Fothergill's gravestone you find out that she has been a widow for 24 years.

How old is Mrs Fothergill?
