Best Answer

Louis XIV was the great-grandfather of Louis XV. Louis XIV had a son: Louis, dauphin of France. This son married and got a son as well: Louis, duke of Burgundy. This latter also had a son, and this was Louis XV. Because Louis dauphin of France and Louis duke of Burgundy both died at a very young age, Louis XV could become King. He did so, aged 5 in 1715.
