[Q] My brother is 3 years elder to me. My father was 28 years of age when my sister was born while my mother was 26 years of age when I was born. If my sister was 4 years of age when my brother was born, then what was the age my father when my brother was born?
(a) 32
(b) 23
(c) 42
(d) 24

Solution

Answer    (a)
Explanation
----
Let my age = x

Then
My brother's age = x + 3
My mother's age = x + 26
My sister's age = (x + 3) + 4 = x + 7
My father's age = (x + 7) + 28 = x + 35

=> age my father when my brother was born = x + 35 – (x + 3) = 32
