Let the present age of daughter = d
Present age of suresh = 2*d
6 years hence:
Age of daughter = d + 6
Age of Suresh = 2*d + 6
Given ratio suresh:daughter= 23:13
2d+6/d+6 = 23/13
13*(2d+6) = 23*(d+6)
26d + 78 = 23d + 138
3d = 60
d = 20
2*d = 40
Present age of Suresh = 40 years.
Hope it helps.

let suresh age be 2x
and his daughter's age be x
AFTER 6 YEARS
suresh age= 2x +6
his daughter's age = x+6
ATQ
(2x+6)/(x+6)=23/13
13 (2x+6)=23 (x+6)
26x+78=23x+138
26x-23x=138-78
3x=60
x=20
age of suresh's daughter is 20 years
and suresh age =2x i.e 2×20=40years
