Akbar will turn 50 when his son Jehangir turns 18. What will be Akbar’s age when it will be exactly 5 times that of Iehangir?

Explanation:

Akbar will turn 50 when his son
Jehangir turns 18,
i.e.when Jehangir was born then Akbar was 32 years old.
Now, let the Jehangir be “x” when Akbar becomes 5 times his age i.e.32+x = 5x => x = 8 years.
This means age of Akbar will be: 32 + 8 = 40 years.
