Explanation

5 years ago, average age of A,B,C was 25, so sum of their ages was 75. Present sum = 75 + 15 = 90. 7 years ago, average age of B,C was 20, so sum was 40. Present sum of B,C = 40 + 14 = 54. A's present age = 90 - 54 = 36 years. Option A (21) is too low, Option B (24) is 12 years short, and Option D (30) is 6 years short. Since 36 is not listed, Option E is correct.
