Given: 
3 children
Product of their ages is 72.

The sum of the ages of his kids is not stated.So we cannot pinpoint the actual 3 ages. We can only assume the combination of the 3 ages.

We do prime factorization of 72.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3  = 1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
1 x 2³ x 3² = 72

1 x 8 x 9 = 72
1 + 8 + 9 = 18

2 x 4 x 9 = 72
2 + 4 + 9 = 15

3 x 4 x 6 = 72
3 + 4 + 6 = 13

1 x 4 x 18 = 72
1 + 4 + 18 = 23
