LET Sunita's brother's age = x years.

then according to question,

Sunita's age

= 5× her brother's age

=5x years.

Also given.

Her father's age is 27 more than her brother's age.

LET her father's age = y years.

Then her brother's age = y - 27

but we know her brother's age = x years

thus from above two equations we can say,

x= y-27

Also given, father's age =87 years.

thus y=87years

now we know

x= y-27, and y=87

thus

x= 87-27 years.

》x= 60 years.

Sunita's age =5x = 5×60 years. = 300 years.

\underline{\boxed{\pink{Sunita's\:Age =300years!}}}

*But it seems to be impossible as her age can't be greater than her father's age.

Step-by-step explanation:

fathers age= 87

brothers age=87-27=60

Sunithas age = 5*60=300

I think there is a mistake in the question. Because Sunithas age will not be more than her father.
