Option 2 : Fanny
Let's denote the names of the people with their initial letters.
According to the given information:
1) Bunty is 5 years older than Chintu → B > C.
Therefore, Bunty = Chintu + 5
2) Chintu is 7 years younger than Derek → C < D.
Therefore, Derek = Chintu + 7
From 1 and 2, Bunty < Derek
Therefore, Derek – Bunty = 2 or D > B
3) Derek is 3 years older than Eron → D > E.
Therefore, Derek = Eron + 3
4) Eron is 8 years younger to Fanny → F > E
Therefore, Fanny = Eron + 8
Bunty + 2 = Eron + 3.
Therefore, B > E
Also, Eron + 3 = Chintu + 7.
Therefore, E > C
Thus, F > D > B > E > C.
Hence, Fanny is the eldest among all others.
