  • Question
  • Father is 5 years older than mother and mother's age now is thrice the age of the daughter. The daughter is now 10 years old. What was the father's age when the daughter was born?


  • Options
  • A. 20 years
  • B. 15 years
  • C. 25 years
  • D. 30 years

  • Correct Answer
  • 25 years 

    Explanation

    Here , Father = F , Mother = M and Daughter = D
    According to question
    Age of F = Age of M + 5,
    Age of M = 3 × Age of D and Age of D = 10 years
    ? Age of M = 3 × 10 = 30 years
    Therefore, father's present age = 30 + 5 = 35 years
    Required answer = father's present age - 10 years = 35 ? 10 = 25 years
