    A) 32                    

    B) 34     

    C) 37                    

    D) 30

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Sol.      [a] Let Kiran's present age be x yr. Then, present age of Kiran's brother = (x + 5) yr Present age of Kiran's sister = x + 5 + 2                                                 = (x + 7) yr Kiran's father age when Kiran's sister was born = 30 yr \[\therefore \] Present age of Kiran's father = 30 + x + 7 Hence, father's age when Kiran's brother born = present age of Kiran's father - present age of Kiran's brother = 30 + x + 7 - (x + 5) =37 + x - x - 5 = 32yr
