Problem Solving - How old are we?

      How Old Are We?
I am twice my brother's age and one-fifth my mother's age.
My dad is older than mum by half my brother's age. All our ages are whole numbers.
  
I go to school but my brother doesn't, yet.

How old are we?
Is there more than one solution?

Extension:
Can you create your own ‘How old are we?’ question for your class maths mate, your parents, or your teacher?
