How old is Granny?
Tom asked his Granny how old she was.
Rather than giving him a straight answer,
she replied:
“I have 6 children, and there are 4 years between each one and the next.
I had my first child (your Uncle Peter) when I was 19.
Now the youngest one (Your Auntie Jane) is 19 herself.
That’s all I’m telling you!”

My answer is 62
I think toms granny is 58 . Because ….. Her youngest child is 19 and if there are 4 years between each one that equals to 39
Maths = 19+4+4+4+4+4=39
Then add the age she was when she had her first child . “19”
Maths : 39+19=58
So 58 is my answer
