Answer:

11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

If four brothers have the average age 6, then the sum of their ages is

4\cdot 6=24

years.

Let x years be the age of sister. If four brothers and their sister have the average age 7, then

\dfrac{24+x}{5}=7.

Multiply this equation by 5:

24+x=35\Rightarrow x=35-24=11.

The sister is 11 years old.
