I dig out tiny caves, and store gold and silver in them. I also build bridges of silver and make crowns of gold. They are the smallest you could imagine. Sooner or later everybody needs my help, yet many people are afraid to let me help them. Who am I?

Given that...

1/ a mother is 21 years older than her child, and

2/ in 6 years time the child will be 5 times younger than the mother,

 

where is the father right now ?

 

Probably on top, behind or under the mum ;)

Correct, and heres the maths to prove it.

 

mother = child + 21

child + 6 = (mother + 6) / 5

child + 6 = (child + 21 + 6) / 5

child + 6 = (child + 27) / 5

(child + 6) * 5 = child + 27

child*5 + 6*5 = child + 27

child*5 - child = 27 - 30

child*4 = -3

child = -3/4

So the child is -3/4 years old. A year is 12 months so -3/4*12 = -9 months.

Must remember that one! :D
