@MartinS saidA census taker knocks on a door. A woman answers and says she has three children.
@Bish
It is your turn
Their ages multiply to 72.
The sum of their ages is the same as the number on the house next door.
The census taker goes next door, looks at the number, then comes back and says,
"I still don’t know their ages."
The woman says, "My oldest child plays piano."
The census taker now knows their ages.
What are the ages of the children?
