Kinode 3,056 Posted February 1, 2011 I found this riddle in this book that helps you get smarter as an example. it's really real as the teacher who wrote the book states. A History teacher came over to a Math teacher and said: "I have three daughters. what is each of their ages?" "It lacks information." Answers the Mathematic. Wanting to give more information, the History teacher responds: "Multiplying their ages, the answer is 36!" "It still lacks information." Answers the Math teacher. "By coincidence, by adding their ages the result is the number of that house!" Completed the father of the three mysterious daughters Yes, apparently they don't want to tell us the number of the house. The Math teacher, looked at the direction poin[/color][/size]ted, shaking his head. "It still lacks information!!" So, with inspiration, the father affirmed: "the oldest daughter plays piano" "Alright! Now I can solve it!" Answered the math teacher, with a smile. Whoever can answer this correctly gains a rep! I don't know for sure... But I guessed: DO NOT USE THIS ANSWER AS YOURS IF YOU DO NOT THINK IT'S CORRECT. THANK YOU. the youngest daughter is 1, the middle daughter is 4, and the oldest daughter is 9. Turns out, I was wrong. but I know what the answer is now ;D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmcmillan317 0 Posted February 1, 2011 At above... think. there's an OLDEST. 2 can't have the same age and none were born at the same year. want a tip guys? There are twins Ok so if there are twins but they can't have the same age, they one must have been born on December 31 and the next on January 1. I'm going to guess 1,2, and 18. I probably over analyzed this though haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HelpMeRan-Sama 141 Posted February 6, 2011 I'm guessing: The youngest 2 are twins and they're both 2, the oldest is 9 (I guessed right after I read the question so I didn't bother reading replies-- if there's already an answer then please delete this post) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
