Answer:
My age is 16 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that,
the age of my 5th sibling = X years
Then the age of the 4th = X+3 years
My age=X+3+3 =X+6 years
the age of my second sibling = X+6+3=X+9 years
And the age of my 1st sibling = X+9+3=X+12 years
According to the question,
X+12+X+9+X+6+X+3+X=110
Or,5X+30=110
Or,5X=110-30
Or,5X=80
Or,X=16
I hope that it will help you.
