There are seven persons A, B, C, D, E, F and G. They are members of a three generation family. They were born in the different years 1961, 1966, 1973, 1986, 1995, 1996 and 2002. There age is calculated from their birth year till 2020.
B is the wife of the person who is most senior person in the family. The one born in the year 1966 is the grandmother of C. B has only one child, who is married to E’s daughter. E has only two children. D is the only brother in law of son of E. Age of F is more than G but less than D. The one who is brother in law of D is born in the year which is a leap year. The one who born in the year 1986 has only one child. The one born in 1966 is the mother in law of the one born in 1995. The one who is the only child of F is born in the year which comes in the 21st century. The age of the person who is the father of the one who born in the year which is multiple of 5 is a prime number.
What is the age of the person who is the father in law of only son of A?
43 years
47 years
54 years
55 years
None of these
Let’s break this down step by step:
- We've got 7 family members, 3 generations, birth years: 1961, 1966, 1973, 1986, 1995, 1996, and 2002. Ages (in 2020): 59, 54, 47, 34, 25, 24, and 18.
- B is the wife of the oldest (born 1961, aged 59).
- 1966 (54 yrs) is grandma to C (so this is a woman, married to 1961-birth guy).
- B has only one child, who is married to E's daughter. E has two kids.
- D is the only brother-in-law to E's son. That means, E’s son’s wife has one brother: D.
- F is older than G but younger than D.
- Brother-in-law of D born in a leap year. Leap years given: 1966, 1973, 1996, 2000, 2004, but here 1966 or 1996 seems likely from other clues.
- Person born in 1986 (34) has only one child.
- 1966's person is also mother-in-law to 1995-born. So 1995 (25 yrs) must be married to 1966’s child.
- Child of F is born in 21st century: so that's 2002 (18 years old child, F's kid).
- Father of the person born in a year which is a multiple of 5 (1995) has a prime-numbered age.
Let's connect these:
- 1961 (male), 1966 (female): oldest couple.
- B = wife (1966), A = husband (1961).
- A & B have only one child, who is married to E’s daughter.
- E has two kids, one is E's daughter (married to A & B's child), one is E’s son (who has brother-in-law D).
- F has child 2002, so F must be 1973 or 1986.
- Person born 1986 has only 1 child: must be F.
- So F = 1986 (34), child G = 2002 (18).
Ages breakdown:
- 1961: 59
- 1966: 54
- 1973: 47
- 1986: 34
- 1995: 25
- 1996: 24
- 2002: 18
Who is father-in-law of only son of A (1961)?
A & B's only child is married to E's daughter.
So E is father-in-law to A&B’s only son (C). Father-in-law to C = E.
C must be E’s daughter’s husband, so C = A & B's only child, married to E’s daughter.
C could be:
- Born 1995 (married), so C = 1995 (25). E’s daughter = C’s wife.
Now, who is the father-in-law of only son of A?
That means: Who is E?
E must be generation 1966 or 1973 (older generation, since his daughter is married).
If E is 1973 (47), perfect fit—a parent to someone born 1995.
Check: The age of father-in-law of only son of A is 47 years.
So, the correct answer is Option 2: 47 years.
Summary of clues:
- Grandparents: A (1961, 59), B (1966, 54)
- Their child C (1995, 25) married to E’s daughter.
- E = 1973 (47), two kids: daughter (married to C) and son.
- F = 1986 (34), G = 2002 (18, F's kid), one child.
- All statements align.
Option 2 is the one you want. 47 years is the answer.
