037 Brother and Sister

Given the small number of years being dealt with, it can be safely assumed that the brother and sister are children (less than age 10)

As the hints point out, they were born in the same year and you're looking for a number that is a multiple of both 2 and 3 (of which there is only one less than 10)



036 Too Many Mice

For starters, forget about trying to do any complex calculations

You purchased one lone mouse on the day it was born (the puzzle is specifically pointing out that the mouse is not mature enough at that time to already be pregnant)

Just think about the question as if you did actually bring home one lone solo baby mouse on the day it was born

If you're still having trouble, think about what it takes for a mouse to have baby mice

SPOILER!!!

The answer for 36 is there both 6

The answer for 37 is 1 because 1 mouse can't have babys on it's own!

And to be fair, the question does specifically state that they give birth EVERY month. That would be impossible if they reproduced sexually. It also says the mice can give birth after 2 months, but clearly some of them must be male, so that information was wrong too.
