Question 1205495
.
Janet is presently one-sixth as old as her mother. 
Her mother’s age, when divided by 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8, 
always leaves one remaining year. 
This is not so when her mother’s present age is divided by 5, 
for then there is nothing left over. How old is Janet’s mother?
How old is Janet?

As it is worded, printed and presented in this post, this problem 
is posed incorrectly, is self-contradictory and, speaking mathematically,
is DEFECTIVE.



I will not explain WHY, since to explain it to a mathematically illiterate 
person is counterproductive.


Mathematically illiterate person should not create/compose "math problems"
and distribute them in the Internet.



This my note is addressed to other visitors, who probably will read this post.

Simply ignore it and do not consider this "problem" seriously and do not spend your time for nothing.



The fact that @Theo presented some solution, means NOTHING.


In order for the problem be correctly posed, its condition should be changed/re-written.
