Let the present age of daughter be x.

Then the present age of Miss Jain will be 5 times as old as daughter = 5x.

6 years later:

The age of daughter = (x + 6)

The age of miss Jain =  (5x + 6).

Given that Jain will be three times as old as her daughter.

5x + 6 = 3(x + 6)

5x + 6 = 3x + 18

5x - 3x = 18 - 6

2x = 12

x = 6.

The age of Miss Jain = 5 * 6

                                     = 30 years


Therefore the age of miss Jain = 30years.

Hope this helps!
