What is the birth year of Mr. Rajesh?
Statements:
1. At present Mr. Rajesh is 25 years younger to his father
2. Mr. Rajesh’s sister who was born on 1974 is 35 years younger to his father
The question asks to find the birth year of Mr. Rajesh. We need to check the sufficiency of the given statements.
Statement 1 says: "At present Mr. Rajesh is 25 years younger to his father."
Let R be Mr. Rajesh's current age and F be his father's current age.
This can be represented as: $R = F - 25$.
This statement provides only a relative age difference and does not give any absolute age or year. Therefore, Statement 1 alone is insufficient.
Statement 2 says: "Mr. Rajesh’s sister who was born on 1974 is 35 years younger to his father."
Let S be the sister's current age, F be the father's current age, and Y be the current year.
The sister's age is $S = Y - 1974$.
The statement implies: $S = F - 35$.
Substituting the sister's age: $Y - 1974 = F - 35$.
This allows us to find the father's age in terms of the current year: $F = Y - 1974 + 35$, which simplifies to $F = Y - 1939$.
This statement relates the father's age to the current year using the sister's birth year but does not mention Mr. Rajesh. Therefore, Statement 2 alone is insufficient.
Now, let's use both statements together.
Substitute the expression for F from Statement 2 into Statement 1:
$R = (Y - 1939) - 25$
$R = Y - 1964$
Mr. Rajesh's current age (R) is also defined as the current year (Y) minus his birth year: $R = Y - \text{Birth Year}$.
Equating the two expressions for R:
$Y - \text{Birth Year} = Y - 1964$
Solving for the birth year, we get: $\text{Birth Year} = 1964$.
Since we can determine a specific birth year using both statements combined, they are sufficient.
Statement 1 alone is insufficient. Statement 2 alone is insufficient. Both statements together are sufficient to determine Mr. Rajesh's birth year.
