Surely you mean "arithmetic progression" not "appointment"!
a+5d = 37
6/2 (2a+5d) = 147
You want
15/2 (2a+14d)
so solve for a and d and plug 'em in.
The sixth term of an appointment is 37 and the sum of the first sixth term is147 find the first term,find the sum of the first fifteen terms.

a + 5d = 37 ... Eqn 1
6a + 15d = 147 ... Eqn 2
Solve eqn. 1 and 2 simultaneously
a = 12
d = 5
First term = 12
S(15) = 15/2[2a + 14d]
S(15) = 15/2[(2x12) + (14x5)]
S(15) = 705
sum of the first fifteen terms is 705
