Solution

The correct option is C Deepthi
Let Geeta's age be G,Seetha's be S,Deepthi's be D.and Shankar's be Sh.
Given: $G = 2 + S, S = 3 + D$ and $S h = D + 1$
writing all in terms of D we get, $G = 5 + D$ , $S = 3 + D$ & $S h = D + 1 =>$ $G, S$ & $S h$ are older than D or D is the youngest.
Hence, option 'D' is correct.
