Question
When students asked their teacher how old her children were, she said, "I have three children. The product of their ages is 72 and the sum of their ages is the number of this room."

The teacher said, "My oldest child is good at math." Then Carly announced the correct ages of her teacher's children. What are the ages of the teacher's children?
