Correct Answer: 3, 3, 8
Explanation:
Let?s break it down. The product of their ages is 72. So what are the possible choices?
2, 2, 18 ? sum(2, 2, 18) = 22
2, 4, 9 ? sum(2, 4, 9) = 15
2, 6, 6 ? sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
2, 3, 12 ? sum(2, 3, 12) = 17
3, 4, 6 ? sum(3, 4, 6) = 13
3, 3, 8 ? sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14
1, 8, 9 ? sum(1,8,9) = 18
1, 3, 24 ? sum(1, 3, 24) = 28
1, 4, 18 ? sum(1, 4, 18) = 23
1, 2, 36 ? sum(1, 2, 36) = 39
1, 6, 12 ? sum(1, 6, 12) = 19
The sum of their ages is the same as your birth date. That could be anything from 1 to 31 but the fact that Jack was unable to find out the ages, it means there are two or more combinations with the same sum. From the choices above, only two of them are possible now.
2, 6, 6 ? sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
3, 3, 8 ? sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14
Since the eldest kid is taking piano lessons, we can eliminate combination 1 since there are two eldest ones. The answer is 3, 3 and 8.
Correct Answer: 3
Correct Answer: 3.785 kgs
Explanation:
1 Gallon = 3.785 kgs
Gallon is a unit of measurement of liquid.
We know that 1 gallon = 3.785 liters
But we know that,
1 cubic meter = 1000 lit or 1000 kgs
=> 1 lit = 1 kg
Hence, 1 gallon = 3.785 lit = 3.785 kgs.

Examples :: 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 15, 18, 20, ...
Correct Answer: All the above
Explanation:
The Multiples of 18 are 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, ....
Correct Answer: Middle finger
Explanation:
Clearly, while counting the numbers associated to the thumb will be 1,9,17,25,.........
i.e., numbers of the form (8n + 1 ).
where n=1,2,3...
Since 1994 = 249 × 8 + 2, so 1993 shall correspond to the thumb and 1994 to the index finger and 1995 to the middle finger.
