Given: 
3 children
Product of their ages is 72.

The sum of the ages of his kids is not stated.So we cannot pinpoint the actual 3 ages. We can only assume the combination of the 3 ages.

We do 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
1 x 2³ x 3² = 72

1 x 8 x 9 = 72
1 + 8 + 9 = 18

2 x 4 x 9 = 72
2 + 4 + 9 = 15

3 x 4 x 6 = 72
3 + 4 + 6 = 13

1 x 4 x 18 = 72
1 + 4 + 18 = 23

How does Twain satirize typical advice about obeying one’s parents
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Twain believed that obeying is the best policy because if children don't behave, their parents will make them do it regardless. Twain instructs the youth to avoid violence by actually enforcing it upon someone, and then regretting it and apologizing for acting in such an uncivil way.
