Molly is the eldest
\n" ); document.write( "her parent's 7 children.
\n" ); document.write( "the children's ages run in 4-year steps,
\n" ); document.write( "So minimum age for Molly =7x4=28
\n" ); document.write( "Then 7 Children's ages are..4,8,12,16,20,24 and 28.
\n" ); document.write( "This gives age ratio 28/4 =7 which is not acceptable.
\n" ); document.write( "so try 8 as baby age
\n" ); document.write( "we get 8,12,16,20,24,28 and 31.
\n" ); document.write( "Age ratio = 32/8 =4
\n" ); document.write( "Ok
\n" ); document.write( "Answer : Sammys age is 8.\r
