Q:

When Ram was born, his father was 32 years older than his brother and his mother was 25 years older than his sister. If Ram's brother is 6 years older than Ram and his mother is 3 years younger than his father, how old was Ram's sister when Ram was born ?

 A) 6 years B) 8 years C) 10 years D) 12 years

Explanation:

Ram age when he was born = 0 years
=> His brother's age = 6 year
=> His father's age = brother age + 32years = 6+32 = 38
=> His mother's age = father's age - 3 = 35
So sister's age = 35-25 = 10years.

Therefore, Son age = 5x, Mother age = 25x, Person age = 50x.

Thus we get, x+5x+25x+50x = 81

x = 1

Daughter's age = 1, Son's = 5, Mother's = 25, Person's age = 50.
