Let the fathers age be x yrs
the sum of ages of 2 children be (a+b)yrs
acc to 1st condition
x=2(a+b)=2a+2b.....(1)
acc to 2nd condition
x+20=a+20+b+20
x+20=a+b+40
x=a+b+20.....(2)
equating (1) & (2)
a+b=20
sub this in(1)
x=40
therefore the fathers age is 40 yrs.
if u like mark it as brainliest answer.
