The Answer is They are 2, 2, and 9. If you list out the trio of factors that multiply to 36, you get: 1 1 36 = 38 1 2 18 = 21 1 3 12 = 16 1 4 9 = 14 6 6 1 = 13 2 2 9 = 13 2 3 6 = 11 3 3 4 = 10 If the sum is 13, as you can see, there are 2 options. When she says her 'oldest' you know it cannot be {6, 6, 1} since she would have two 'older' sons, not an 'oldest'.
