D Correct answer
Explanation

Let brother's present age = x. After 5 years, brother's age = x + 5 = 25, so x = 20. Rahul is four times as old as his brother: Rahul = 4 × 20 = 80 years. Also check: Rahul is 6 years older than sister (80 = sister + 6, so sister = 74), and 80 is indeed four times 20. All conditions are satisfied.
