Question : Directions: A man was 31 years of age when his son was born. His wife was 26 years of age when his son attained the age of 7 years. What is the difference between the man's age and his wife's age?
Option 1: 7 years
Option 2: 9 years
Option 3: 5 years
Option 4: 12 years
Correct Answer: 12 years
Solution :
Given:
A man was 31 years old when his son was born.
When their son was 7 years old, his wife's age = 26 years
Wife's age when the son was born = (26 – 7) = 19 years
Therefore, the difference between the man's age and his wife's age = (31 – 19) = 12 years
So, the difference between their ages is 12 years. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
