a. 41, 36
b. 24, 28
c. 28, 24
d. 36, 35

ANSWER: 36, 35
 
My brother was born 6 years after my sister was born and 3 years before I was born. Age of father during my brother’s birth = (30 + 6) = 36 years.
Age of mother during my brother’s birth = (38 – 3) = 35 years.
Hence, during the birth of my brother, my father was 36 years old and my mother was 35 years old.
