Guest Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 At a recent birthday party for a friend of mine, I pointed out the following to my friend: Thirty-two years after you were one-fourth as old as you were ten years after you were one-fourth as old as you were five years before you were half as old as you will be nine years from now, you were one-third as old as you were seven years after you were five times as old as you were four years before you were one-third as old as you were two years after you were half as old as you will be seven years from now. What is my friend's age? (This is from a game based on D&D so the age may very well seem a little uncommon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
