There were two men standing on a street. The one says to the
other, "I have 3 daughters, the product of their ages is 36.
What is the age of the OLDEST daughter?"
The second guy says, "I need more information." So, the
first guy says, "The sum of their ages is equal to the
address of the house across the street."
The second guy looks at the address and says, "I still need
more information." So, the first guy says, "My oldest
daughter wears a red dress."

Answer / guest
The answer is 9 years.
First you need to find all the possible sets of three
numbers that when multiplied equals 36:
1 1 36
1 2 18
1 3 12
1 4 9
1 6 6
2 2 9
2 3 6
3 3 4
Then you add the numbers together to find the sum
1 1 36 = 38
1 2 18 = 21
1 3 12 = 16
1 4 9 = 14
1 6 6 = 13
2 2 9 = 13
2 3 6 = 11
3 3 4 = 10
Even though we don't know the address the guy knows it. For
him to need more information that means that at least two of
the sets of numbers has the same sum. Two of them do, 1 6 6
and 2 2 9.
When the first guy said that his OLDEST daugher wears a red
dress that meant that there had to be the oldest. So 1 6 6
can't possibly be the answer. So the possible possiblity is
2 2 9 and the OLDEST daughter is 9 years old.
Therefore, the answer is 9.

The son of a rich bullion merchant left home on the death of his father. All he had with him was a gold chain that consisted of 138 links. He rented a place in the city center with a shop at the lower level and an apartment at the upper level. He was required to pay every week one link of the gold chain as rent for the place. The landlady told him that she wanted one link of the gold chain at the end of one week, two gold links at the end of two weeks, three gold links at the end of three weeks and so on. The son realized that he had to cut the links of the gold chain to pay the weekly rent. If the son wished to rent the place for 138 weeks, what would be the minimum number of links he would need to cut?
