here, its pretty easy–

there are three women, right?

and each of them have two daughters

ok, now say that the first woman is the mother of the other two women – that gives us three women so far

now say that the woman’s two daughters have daughters of their own – that maked seven people

so basically, starting with the previous generation, these are the people seated:

four daughters, two mothers, and one grandmother

there you go 😀

Let’s get straight to the facts.

3 women, each have 2 daughters.

3 women + 6 daughters = 9 women all in all

The circular permutation formula dictates that the coefficient of 3 and the coefficient of 9 is equivocally substituted by determining the factorial of 35, which in this case is 2. If therefore we subtract 7 by 11 and add 2 to the difference, we can divide this and get a quotient of 90 degrees.

After this we should get the cosine of the tangent of a right angle, so that we will know if the corresponding supplemental angle is superficially coincided by a string of unfortunate events.

Brains all over the floor…

Not all of the daughters are women and/or are not present; the riddle may only refer to the 3 women as eating; it only says “they” are having lunch.

Doesn’t say they’re ALL having lunch – ‘They’ refers to the three women (who each have two daughters).

It is a grandmother, her two daughters, and four granddaughters. That makes 7 people due to overlap.
