Translate all statements into fixed \emph{age gaps}; add or subtract gaps to move between births, then shift the known parent’s age accordingly.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Age gaps: Sister is 2 years older than Brother; Brother is 5 years older than Kiran. Hence Sister is $2+5=7$ years older than Kiran.
Father’s age when Sister was born $=30$. Therefore father’s age when Kiran was born $=30+7=37$.
Brother was born $5$ years before Kiran, so father’s age at Brother’s birth $=37-5=32$.
