Kids' Ages

Kids' Ages

A 35-year-old woman has 3 children. If you multiply the 3 children's ages, you get 36. If you add up the children's ages it's 13. And her oldest child plays basketball for 3 years.
How old are the kids?

They are 2, 2, and 9.

If you list out the trio of factors that multiply to 36, you get:

1 1 36 = 38

1 2 18 = 21

1 3 12 = 16

1 4 9 = 14

6 6 1 = 13

2 2 9 = 13

2 3 6 = 11

3 3 4 = 10

If the sum is 13, as you can see, there are 2 options. When she says her 'oldest' you know it cannot be {6, 6, 1} since she would have two 'older' sons, not an 'oldest'.

Magic Jumps

Magic Jumps

An athlete is jumping. However, every time she jumps she gets a bit more tired, and every jump goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump. Now, for her very first jump, she goes 1/2 of a foot. On her second jump, she goes 1/4 of a foot, and so on and so forth. How many jumps does it take for her to travel 1 foot?

She will never get to the 1-foot mark because you keep adding smaller and smaller amounts!

Can you find the missing number?

The number that should replace the question mark is 9. Why? The sum of the three numbers on each die equals the number written below it. For the first die, for example: 8 + 4 + 7 = 19; for the second: 8 + 2 + 1 = 11. Following this pattern would explain why the third die is also 11 (5 + 5 + 1) and why the mysterious question mark should be 9 (4 + 3 + 2).

Guess the Number

Guess the Number

Can you solve the equation?

Consider, number as: A + B + C

Now they are following this pattern: A + B + C = [AxB] [AxC] [(AxB)+(AxC)-(B)]

Where: [AxB] = First two digits

[AxC] = Further two digits [(AxB)+(AxC)-(B)] = Last two digits
E.g.: 5 + 3 + 2 =

First two digits: 5×3= 15

Further two digits: 5×2= 10

Last two Digits: 15 + 10 = 25 – 3(middle number from question) = 22

So, we get 5 + 3 + 2 = 151022

Same as: 7 + 2 + 5 = 143547
