let sum of ages of 5 children = x
father's age = 5x
after 15 years
(x+15*5)=2 (5x+15)
2x+150 = 10x+30
8x=120
/8
x=15 years
father's age =5*15 = 75 years
father's age = 5x
after 15 years
(x+15*5)=2 (5x+15)
2x+150 = 10x+30
8x=120
/8
x=15 years
father's age =5*15 = 75 years

btw men your answer is right but your calculations is wrong
your anwer is also wrong .let y is father age that is equal to sum of his sons age after 15 year acc to question ( y+15*5)=2(y+15) on solving this we get the right answer . and it would be y =45

Age of 5 children be =5x
sum = 5x+5x+5x+5x+5x= 25x
after 15 years the age of children be = 25x × x = 25 the fathers age
25 × 25 =50.
after 15 years the age of father = 50.
sum = 5x+5x+5x+5x+5x= 25x
after 15 years the age of children be = 25x × x = 25 the fathers age
25 × 25 =50.
after 15 years the age of father = 50.
