Sorry, but we support MySQL version 5.6.0 or later

I am on an ubuntu machine using LAMP, I am trying to install magento. I have downloaded the magento and completed with the Readiness Check. When I am trying to create database it shows the following error:

Sorry, but we support MySQL version 5.6.0 or later.

What I did was to create an empty database in phpmyadmin namely magento. In the setup wizard of magento I added the following to add a database:

Database Server Host:localhost 
Database Server Host:root //phpmyadmin username
Database Server Password:password //phpmyamdin password
Database Name: magento//database name as enter in phpmyadmin
Table prefix: //empty

so, is there any quick way how I can upgrade my MySQL version.

Here is the solution

Uninstall the current verion of mysql by using the following commands in the terminal

sudo apt-get remove mysql-server
sudo apt-get autoremove

After this Install the MySQL 5.6 by using the following 

sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.6 mysql-client-core-5.6
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.6

During this you will be asked for the password enter it and thats it.
