Answer: 40 year
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Father be x
and the sum of the age of son be y
• The age of father is twice the sum of the ages of his two children's.
x = 2y .... ( i )
• After 20 years, his age will be equal to the sum of ages of his children's.
° After 20 years , their age will be
Father's age :- ( x + 20 )
Sum of two son's age :- ( y + 20 + 20 )
:- ( y + 40 )
( x + 20 ) = ( y + 40 )
x - y + 20 - 40 = 0
x - y - 20 = 0 ...... ( ii )
Putting value of x from ( i ) in ( ii )
x - y - 20 = 0
2y - y - 20 = 0
y = 20
Putting value of y in ( i )
x = 2y
x = 2 × 20
x = 40
So, the present age of father is 40 years !!
