Question 178

A husband and a wife had five married sons and each of them had four children. How many members are there in the family?

Solution

5 married sons = 10 members ( 5 husband & 5 wives)

Each pair had four children

=> 1 family has 6 members (4children , 1 husband & 1 wife)

There are 5 such families => 5*6 = 30 members

Also, the five sons have a mother and father

=> Total members = 30+2 = 32
