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:
  1. A across is Ambrose's age in years.
  2. A down is the sum of Ambrose's and Brandon's age in years.
  3. B across is the sum of Ambrose's age, Brandon's age and Chester's age in years.
  4. Two of Ambrose, Brandon and Chester are the same age in years.
Who is a different age in years from the other two?

A=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
