Answer:

E is 56 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume E joined them now.

(A - 6 + B - 6 + C - 6 + D - 6)/4 = 30

(A + B + C + D + E)/5 = 40

(A + B + C + D - 24)/4 = 30

A + B + C + D - 24 = 120

A + B + C + D = 144

(A + B + C + D + E)/5 = 40

A + B + C + D + E = 200

144 + E = 200

E = 56
