Answer 1

let Zakir's present  age is x
Zakir's mother present age is y
y=6x
x - 5 = y/3
x - 5= 2x
x=-5
the question should be five years later
then the answer would be 5,30

Answer 2

zakir age = X
his mother age = 6x
A. T. Q.
5 years later
x+5= 6x/3
x=5
zakir age after 5 years will be 10 and her mother present age (before 5 years) is 30
