    A womam say: 'Last week I was only 18, but next year I will be in my twenty-second year!' Can you show how it could be possible that she was telling the truth?

    Question #18836. Asked by Tim.

    Stevo

    Alternatively, her birthday is 29 December. She is talking on 2 January. So, last week, she was 18, then 19 on her birthday, she is in the year she will be 20 and next year she will be 21, i.e., in her twenty second year.
