.

It is a good problem for a child of 6 - 7 years, and he (or she) can solve it using the fingers of his (or her) hand.

It would be a useful exercise for such a child.

But if I solve it for you, it will be useless exercise for me, for you and for a hypothetical child.

Have a nice day / evening !
