I asked this earlier, but no one seemed to be able to solve it so I will ask it again. I got it from the website http://www.mindchallenger.com
Answers are on the site.
This can be a little tricky and there is a simple way to solve it. All the information needed is here for those of you who think it is "unsolveable." The beauty of this puzzle is it appears unsolveable.
Tom and Sally are neighbors and Sally say to Tom, "I want you to guess the ages of my three children. The product of their ages is 36 and the sum of their ages equal your house number." Tom thinks for a minute and says, "I can't solve it. I need another clue." Sally says, "OK. My eldest daughter is doing the laundry." Tom says, "I know their ages." Do you?
