Question : Directions: A man was 32 years of age when he had his first son. His wife was 35 years of age when his son attained the age of 7 years. The difference in age between the man and his wife is?
Option 1: 7 years
Option 2: 3 years
Option 3: 5 years
Option 4: 4 years
Correct Answer: 4 years
Solution :
Given:
The age of the wife was 35 years and the age of the son was 7 years.
According to the question –
The age of the wife when her son was born was (35 – 7) = 28 years
But, the age of the man was 32 years old when his son was born.
Therefore, the difference in age between the man and his wife is (32 – 28) = 4 years.
So, the difference in age between the man and his wife is 4 years. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
