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.
