Birthday
Party
Thanks
Sheri
Let's analyze the clues:
1. It was Jane's child's birthday party.
2. Brian is not the oldest child.
3. Sarah had Anne just over a year ago.
4. Laura's child will be 3 next birthday.
5. Daniel is older than Charlie.
6. Teresa's child is the oldest.
7. Charlie is older than Laura's child.
Now let's organize the information:
From clue 1, it was Jane's child's birthday party.
So, Jane's child is celebrating the birthday.
From clue 6, Teresa's child is the oldest.
From clue 2, Brian is not the oldest child.
From clue 5, Daniel is older than Charlie.
From clue 7, Charlie is older than Laura's child.
From clue 4, Laura's child will be 3 next birthday.
From clue 3, Sarah had Anne just over a year ago.
Now let's try to piece together the information:
- Teresa's child is the oldest, and Brian is not the oldest, so Teresa's child is not Brian.
- Daniel is older than Charlie, so Daniel is not the youngest.
Now, let's look at clue 7:
Charlie is older than Laura's child. Since Teresa's child is the
oldest, and Daniel is older than Charlie, Daniel must be Teresa's
child.
So, Teresa's child is Daniel.
Now, let's look at clue 5:
Daniel is older than Charlie. Since Daniel is Teresa's child, and
Daniel is older than Charlie, then Charlie must be Teresa's child.
Now, let's look at clue 3:
Sarah had Anne just over a year ago. Since Daniel and Charlie are Teresa's children, Sarah's child must be Anne.
Now, we know the mothers associated with their children:
- Teresa's child is Daniel.
- Jane's child is Anne.
- Laura's child is Charlie.
- Sarah's child is Brian.
Now let's look at the ages:
- Teresa's child (Daniel) is the oldest.
- Jane's child (Anne) is 1 year old (just over a year ago).
- Laura's child (Charlie) will be 3 next birthday.
- Sarah's child (Brian) is not the oldest.
Putting it all together:
- Teresa's child (Daniel) is the oldest.
- Jane's child (Anne) is 1 year old.
- Laura's child (Charlie) will be 3 years old.
- Sarah's child (Brian) is 2 years old.
