Question

Ayush was born two years after his father’s marriage. His mother is five years younger than his father but 20 years older than Ayush who is 10 years old. At what age did the father get married ?
1. 23 years
2. 25 years
3. 33 years
4. 35 years

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : 23 years

Calculation:

Ayush present age = 10 years. 

His mother's present age = (10 + 20) years

 ⇒  30 years.

Ayush father's present age = (30 + 5) years

 ⇒ 35 years.

Ayush father's age at the time of Ayush birth = (35 – 10) years

 ⇒ 25 years.

Ayush father's age at the time of marriage = (25 –  2) years

⇒ 23 years

∴ Father get married at the age of 23 years
