The total age of the three children are = 37years

<h3>Calculation of the total age of children</h3>

The product of the ages of three children is = 1872.

Let take child 1 = x

child 2 = x

child. 3 = x

Therefore, the age of three children = x³= 1872

Therefore;

$x = \sqrt[3]{1872}$

X = 12.32448

The age of the middle child = 12.32448 + 12.32448

= 24.64896/2

= 12.32448

Therefore the sum of their ages = 12.32448 + 12.32448 + 12.32448 = 37years.
