Answer:

Present age of Rahul and Haroon are 20 and 28 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have given in the question that The age of Rahul and Haroon are in the ratio 5:7. Four years later the sum of their ages will be 56 years

Let age of Rahul and Haroon are x and y respectively

So according to question

x/y = 5/7

7x=5y  .....(1)

Now after 4 years ,

x+4+y+4 = 56

x+y = 48

x+7x/5 = 48

x=20

So from equation 1,

y = 28

So Present age of Rahul and Haroon are 20 and 28 respectively
