Where is Father? Mathematical Question.
Saw this on a friend's facebook wall.
Just have to share. It's LOL.
(something in between while I blog about the third part of the surprise)
A mother is 21 years older than the child.
6 years from now the mother will be 5 times as old as the child.
Question: Where's the father?
(Give 10 minutes to think about it before scrolling down)

Got it?
The answer is...
The mother is 21 years older than the child.
M = C + 21
In 6 years from now the mum will be 5 times as old as the child.
M + 6 = (C + 6) x 5... See More
Hence,
C + 21 + 6 = (C + 6) x 5
C + 27 = 5C + 30
-3 = 4C
C = -3/4
The child is -3/4 years old, that is, it'll be born in 9 months.
Thus... by mathematical deduction,
Right now, the father is on top of the mother.

Lol. That is a very good one.
ReplyDeleteWeird logic.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I did it using algebra (without looking) and thought negative age is impossible. Then I scrolled down and saw your answer :-)
ReplyDeletemaybe father is behind or at the bottom...
ReplyDeleteBut still.... the first statement is a lie. The mother is not 21 years older than the child now, isn't it? It's 20 years old and 3 months.
ReplyDeletehahahaha!
