| What are the ages of his daughter ? |
|
A man had three daughters. Another man asked him the ages of his daughter. He told that the product of their ages is 36.
Second man was confused and asked for another clue. First man told him that the sum of their ages is equal to his house number.
Second man did some calculations and was still confused. He asked for another clue. First man told him that his youngest daughter had blue eyes. On hearing this, second man immediately gave the correct Answer.
Question : What are the ages of his daughter ?

I don't know what makes you think like it. The question doesn't tell us if there is any possibility to look at houses numbers.
EDIT:
Ahh just got it.
First man told him that the sum of their ages is equal to his house number.
It makes confused
Actually he said, "the sum of their ages is equal to your house number".
Thats why he knew it was 13. But he couldn't make his decision because there were two possible answers.
1,6,6 and 2,2,9.
So he asked for another clue and after knowing youngest one is not twins, he got the answer.
