The task you have been given, is to calculate the age of Robert, based upon the following information.

*  The sons and daughters of Robert are each exactly one year older than the next oldest child.

*  Robert Is exactly six (6) times the age of the youngest child.

 *  The sum of the ages of the children equal the age of Robert.

*  Robert has five (5) children.

*  Robert is six (6) times the age of the youngest child.

'So, how old is Robert?

Really old! He's 60 and has kids 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14. Poor fella!

 @Gregory Matthews, here's one for you that I heard at a trivia contest tonight:

What is the highest score a person can earn in a single game while bowling IF that person knocks down 9 pins on their first attempt, and misses the spare?

(Note: My husband and I got the correct answer.)
