Since it is been given in conditions:

1. sum of ages are same.

2. also, its been said dat jim is dorthy's brother so jim kan be wid virginia or jane.

3. but see the 4th condition which clearly states dat sum of ages of jim,jane and tom,dorthy are same.

Thus, jim,jane

         tom,dorthy

       xxx,virginia are the respective couples.

But given that.... Virgina is oldest means she has to make couple with youngest Man and also given that ages of Jane + Jin = Tom + Dorthy. So Tom is youngest man b/w them.
then couples are............
Tom - Virgina 
Jin - xxx
Jane - Dorthy

Jane and  Jim are of same age.
They cant marry Virginia, since their couple ages should be same.
Now we are left Jane and Jim with Dorthy and XXX
Since Jim is Dorthy's brother, Jim marries XXX
So Jane marries Dorthy.
And left out couple is Tom and Virginia.
