#115:The Age Of Sente
Several of the local schools in
Perplex City take their children to
the Academy for an annual guided
tour. The teachers hope some of the
magic from the hallowed institution
will rub off on the youngsters and
improve their puzzle setting and
solving skills.
By a stroke of luck this group bumped
into the Master of the Academy during
a recent tour.
Too young to know any better, one of
the children asked Sente how old he
was.
Sente smiled briefly before telling
the children the following riddle:
If to my age there added be,
One half, one third and three times three;
Six score and ten the sum you'll see,
Pray find out what my age may be.
None of the children could solve the
riddle before Sente disappeared down
the corridor.
Can you figure out his age?
