    Solution

    The average age of (husband, wife, child) before 4 years=24 Total age of (husband, wife, child) before 4 years=24×3=72 Total age of (husband, wife, child) present =72+12=84 years. The average age of husband and child before 5 years=19 years Total age of husband and child before in present = (19×2) +10=48 years  so now the age of the wife = is 84-48=36 years
