Chinnu was born two years after his father's marriage. His mother is five years younger than his father but 20 years older than Chinnu who is 10 years old. At what age did the father get married ?
A)
23 years
B)
24 years
C)
25 years
D)
28 years

Correct Answer : Option (A) - 23 years


Explanation :

Chinnu's present age = 10 years.
 
His mother's present age = (10 + 20) years = 30 years.
 
Chinnu's father's present age = (30 + 5) years = 35 years.
 
Chinnu's father's age at the time of Chinnu's birth = (35 - 10) years = 25 years.
 
Therefore Chinnu's father's age at the time of marriage = (25 - 2) years = 23 years.
