The Giggling Pixies
There were two giggling pixies, the old one and the young one. The old one is 120 years old, and the young one is 32 years old. How old will the old pixie be when he is exactly twice as old as the young one?
Answer
The old pixie is 88 years older than the young pixie. This means that the old pixie would be 176 years old when the young pixie would be 88 years old. However, do not worry because neither of these creatures will be able to age that much.Hide Answer Show Answer
