let the age of his son be x.
then Abdul age will be 5x.
according to question,
5x+6=(x+6)3
5x+6=3x+18
2x=12
x=6, age of his son in 6yrs.
now,
Abdul's age =5x . so, 5×6= 30.
ans= 30yrs

Answer 2

Let the age of Abdul's son be x and Abdul's age be 5×x=5x.

After 6 years.
Age of Abdul's son be x+6 Abdul's age be 5x+6.
A.T.Q
5x+6 =3(x+6)
5x+6 =3x+18

2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
Age of Abdul's son = 6
Age of Abdul = 30
