The ages of Ambrose, Brandon and Chester can be related to the diagram above so that when just one digit is written in each box:
- A across is Ambrose's age in years.
- A down is the sum of Ambrose's and Brandon's age in years.
- B across is the sum of Ambrose's age, Brandon's age and Chester's age
in years.
- Two of Ambrose, Brandon and Chester are the same age in years.
Who is a different age in years from the other two?
C is the odd one =any non-zero one-digit number of yearSA=B= TEN OR TWENTY OR THIRTY OR FORTY
SO:
4*9=36
THIRTY SIX POSSIBLE TRIPLETS (A,B,C)
ERROR :
IN THIS POST B & C SHOULD BE INTERCHANGED
