\n" ); document.write( "\"How old are you Tammy?\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"I am three times as old as Timmy was when Tony was born. Actually, it's funny, but
\n" ); document.write( "Timmy's, Tracey's, Tommy's and my ages were all factors of Mum's age when Tony was
\n" ); document.write( "born. The only other year where the ages of more than two of us were factors of Mum's
\n" ); document.write( "age was when Tracey was half as old as I am now.\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"How old is your Mum now?\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"There's another funny thing. When Mum turns 50, Tony will be the same age Mum was
\n" ); document.write( "when she gave birth to Tommy.\"
\n" ); document.write( "Assuming Tammy was talking in terms of whole years, and with my mathematical and reasoning abilities I was able to quickly deduce not just Tammy's age, but all of their ages. So how old are Tommy, Timmy, Tammy, Tracey, Tony and Mum now?
