Correct Answer: 4 years
Solution : The wife was 35 years old when her son was 7 years old. ⇒ The wife's age when her son was born = (35 – 7) = 28 years and her husband's age was 32 years old when the son was born.
So, the difference between their ages = (32 – 28) = 4 years Hence, the fourth option is correct.
