I have answered this question before. This should be in the Mathematics category. 

Given:
Bob has three kids whose ages has the product of 72. I will only be able to give you a set of 3 numbers to represent the ages. Had the sum of the ages been given, the specific ages would be provided.

I just did a prime factorization of 72.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3 =   1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72   ⇒ 2³ x 3²

There are a lot of possible combinations, here are a few.

1 x 8 x   9 = 72      ⇒ 1 + 8 + 9 = 18
1 x 4 x 18 = 72      ⇒ 1 + 4 + 18 = 23
2 x 4 x   9 = 72      ⇒ 2 + 4 + 9 = 15
