A man and his grandson have the same birthday. For six consecutive years, the man's age was a exact multiple of the boy's age. How old were they at the last birthday?

The boy was 6, and his grandfather was 66.

Starting at 1:
1,61
2,62
3,63
4,64
5,65
6,66

Easy enough with Excel and conditional formatting to highlight multiples.
