Total age of 4 members, 10 years ago = (24 x 4) years = 96 years.

Total age of 4 members now = [96 + (10 x 4)] years = 136 years.

Total age of 6 members now = (24 x 6) years = 144 years.

Sum of the ages of 2 children = (144 - 136) years = 8 years.

Let the age of the younger child be x years.

Then, age of the elder child = (x+2) years.

So, x+(x+2) =8 <=> x=3

Age of younger child  =  3 years.

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
