    C 20 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 30 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 35 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the age of A when he was married be x years. Present age of A = 7x/5 Present age of his brother = (1/2)×(7x/5) = 7x/10 According to Question, => x + 20 = 7/5x => 2/5x = 20 => x = 50 years Present age of his brother = (7/10) ×50 = 35 years
