as a moat i.e castle walls from seige towers

 

Huh?

I get the protect the walls part (moat), but it sounds like the towers are attacking the walls??

[Thunderbird]

Reason was sort of right it was water.

Where'd you get tornado from TBird

My *** evidently...I almost put mote...Damn :hihi:

Three mathematicians are talking.

"How many kids do you have?" The first asks the second mathematician.

"Three," she answers.

"How old are they?" he asks.

"Well if you multiply their ages, you get 72. But if you add them, you get

your office number." She says.

 

The first mathematician thinks for a few seconds and says, "I do not think

there is enough information for me to solve this!" he says.

 

The mother mathematician immediately says, "Oh, of course, I forgot to tell

you that the eldest plays the violin!"

 

What are the children's ages?

Freezy, have you seen lord of the rings? seige towers are rolled up to the walls so people can climb up onto the walls protected from arrows. Unlike ladders which can also be easily push over also.

Ah, thanks.

There's an alternate solution, hence the riddle. :shrug:

[Jay-qu]

Which I am aware of, hence why I wont tell people why this one is correct

I hope you could because I'm embarrassed to say I don't see why it wouldn't be any appropriate mix of 72's factors, such as:

 

2, 3, 12 or

3, 4, 6 or

1, 4, 18 or

3, 3, and 8

 

unless we are limited by what the office number should be... I don't get it :eek2:

 

Oh, wait - I just got it. The office number has to be the same for more than one of the mix of factors - and 14 is the only sum where that's true and 2, 6, 6 would hardly make sense - ok, got it :shrug:

I see no reason to be embarassed.

 

Applause is suitable!

To clarify, the last bit of info 'The eldest plays the violin' excludes the 2,6,6 solution, since that implies there would be two eldest's :Exclamati
