Solution

The question is a logical puzzle. Let's break it down:

  1. A and C are unmarried ladies and they are not working. So, they can't be the doctor or the engineer.
  2. E is the husband in the only married couple, so E must be a man.
  3. B is the brother of C, so B is also a man. B is neither a lawyer nor an engineer.
  4. Since the doctor and the engineer are the only working members in the family, and A, C, and B are ruled out, the doctor and the engineer must be D and E.
  5. Since none of the ladies is working as a doctor, the doctor can't be a woman. So, the doctor must be a man.
  6. Therefore, the doctor is either D or E.
  7. But we know that E is the husband, so E is married. Since the only married couple in the family is a doctor-engineer couple, E must be the engineer.
  8. Therefore, D must be the doctor.

So, the doctor in the family is D.
