Once there were 9 children, all of which were in the same family. They were all born 18 months apart. The oldest one (George) was 5 times older than the youngest one (Michael).
How old was Michael?
Answer
3 yrs. old.
If each child was born 18 months apart, then there has to be a 12-year gap between the oldest and the youngest.
Therefore, George is 15 and Michael 3.
This is the only 12-year gap that has a difference in ages of 5 times.
