D Correct answer
Explanation

Daughter is 20. Mother is 2*20 = 40. Father is 40 + 3 = 43. When the daughter was born (20 years ago), the father's age was 43 - 20 = 23.

AI explanation

The daughter is 20 years old now, so the mother is 2 times 20 = 40 years old. The father is 3 years older than the mother, making him 40 + 3 = 43 years old now. When the daughter was born 20 years ago, the father's age was 43 - 20 = 23 years.
