If his sister was 4 years of age when his brother was born, what were the ages of Ravi's father and mother respectively when his brother was born?

A. 32 years, 23 years B. 32 years, 29 years C. 35 years, 29 years D. 35 years, 33 years

Answer: Option (A)
Explanation: When Ravi's brother was born, let Ravi's father's age = x years and mother's age = y years. Then, sister's age = (x - 28) years. So, x - 28 = 4 or x = 32. Ravi's age = (y - 26) years. Age of Ravi's brother = (y - 26 + 3) years = (y - 23) years. Now, when Ravi's brother was born, his age = 0 i.e. y - 23 = 0 or y = 23.

(A + B + C)'s 1 hour's work = ([latex]\frac {1}{4}[/latex]+[latex]\frac {1}{3}[/latex])= [latex]\frac {7}{12}[/latex]. B's 1 hour's work = ([latex]\frac {7}{12}[/latex]-[latex]\frac {1}{2}[/latex])=[latex]\frac {1}{12}[/latex]. Therefore B alone will take 12 hours to do the work.
