A mother is 21 years older than her child. In exactly 6 years from now, the mother will be exactly 5 times as old as the child.
Where's the father?

Daddy is inside of mommy. They've just finished making Junior.

Hey this one was in a Professor Layton game. I think it was the first one and then there was an updated one in the second where you had to tell the age of two siblings instead of one child.

Edited by car15: 10/4/2014 9:41:23 PM[b]SOLUTION[/b] Think of it as a mathematical equation. The problem indicates that: M = C + 21 and M + 6 = (C + 6) * 5 Plug (C + 21) in for M. (C + 21)+ 6 = (C + 6) * 5 C + 27 = 5C + 30 -3 = 4C C = -3/4 The child is -3/4 years old. It will be born in 9 months' time. The father has just conceived the child.
