There is more than one possible solutions
Their total ages is 195.
60(father) 60(mother), 30(twins), 30(twins), 15(youngest)
60(father) 60(mother), 30(twins), 30(twins), 15(youngest)
There Is More Than One Possible Explanation
For example, there could be only one elderly parent left, say aged 100 (possible). The eldest child could be 35 years old and the second child could be 25 years old, the third 20 years old, the fourth 15 years old.
A Couple and Their Single Children
this family would consist of:
Father (65 years)
Mother (60 years)
Daughter (30 years)
Son 1 (20 years)
Son 2 (20 years)
(1 Girl and Twin Boys)
Total: 195
Average: 39.
Father (65 years)
Mother (60 years)
Daughter (30 years)
Son 1 (20 years)
Son 2 (20 years)
(1 Girl and Twin Boys)
Total: 195
Average: 39.
Simple Family
Dad and mum= 45 and 42 years old.
Grandfather = 70 year old.
Twins = 19 and 19 years old.
Grandfather = 70 year old.
Twins = 19 and 19 years old.
Let's assume that the 5 members are siblings!
Since the question does not give much details, let's assume they are all siblings of the same family.
The total ages of 5 members is 39 x 5 = 195 , let the eldest brother be 51 years old and there are 2 pairs of twin brothers and twin sisters, each 36 years old. What do you think?

The ages of the family members
The 5 members in the family are:
- Father (62)
- Mother (61)
- Eldest Son (29)
- Second Son (24)
- Youngest Daughter (19)
For a grand total of 195.

- Father (62)
- Mother (61)
- Eldest Son (29)
- Second Son (24)
- Youngest Daughter (19)
For a grand total of 195.

Possible answer to Activity 6
Since the total ages is 39 x 5 = 195 years, very likely there is a grandparent who is perhaps 80 yrs old, the 2 parents - 45 & 40 years old and 2 children - 16 & 14 years old.
