    Let the age of Kevin be x,

    age of twin sisters = x - 6

    sum of children's age = x + x - 6 + x - 6

    = 3x - 12

    3x - 12 = 42

    3x = 54

    x = 54/3

    = 18

    age of twin sisters = x - 6

    = 18 - 6

    = 12

    Kevin is 18 years old whereas the twin sisters are both 12 years old.
