Mathematically, yes.
Realistically, no.
The difference in their ages is the parent's age when the child was born.
Let's say that the youngest possible is 12.
Then the ratio would be 10:9 when the parent is 120 and the child is 108.
Not likely.

There are 900 toothpicks in a​ regular-sized box. If a jumbo box is made by tripling all the dimensions of the​ regular-sized bo
Colt1911 [192]

When you triple the height of the box, it can hold (900 x 3) = 2,700 pieces.

Then triple its length, and it can hold (2,700 x 3) = 8,100 pieces.

Then triple its width, and it can hold (8,100 x 3) = 24,300 pieces.

When you triple the dimensions of a 3D object, it has 27 times its original volume.  (900 x 27) = 24,300 .
