With the help of DNA fingerprinting which can be used to determine paternity. There are three babies (Baby A, Baby B and Baby C) in a maternity ward, and three sets of confused and worried parents. (Father and Mother #1 are a couple, as are Father and Mother #2, and Father and Mother #3.) 
You do each PCR reaction on chromosome 15 and load each one into a separate well of an agarose gel, and then run the gel.
 

 which number of repeats did Baby C inherit from his mother?
