Roberto has at least one son and at least one daughter and owns a yacht. His age is more than the number of children but he is not yet 100 years old. If the product of his age, the number of his children, and length of his yacht is 32118, how old is he, how many children does he have, and how long is his yacht?

32118 = 6 * 53 * 101...........53 and 101 are prime numbers.

I do not have any idea about the resonable length of a yacht - also problem does not say whether it is measured in meters, feet or miles - oh well - stupid problems require stupid answers!!!!
