Consider this wacky bunch: Carla is half as old as her brother, who's a square; three times as old as her sister, who's perfect; twice as old as her niece, who's odd; and, finally, a year younger than Danny and a year older than Freddy, her two cousins in their prime. How old is Carla?

This is a good one! Do you honestly have the answer?

Is she 6? I can't figure out what "square" means, but the rest of it all makes sense w/this answer.

her brother,(the square) is 36
her sister(perfect) is 6
her niece(odd) is 9
