Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
let the ages of hari and harry be 5x and 7x
4 years from now,
hari age=5x+4
harry age=7x+4
5x+4 / 7x+4=3/4
4 x (5x+4) = 3 x (7x+4)
20x+16=21x+12
16-12=21x-20x
4=x
x=4
hari age = 20
harry age= 28

hari : harry
5 :7
hari's age = 5x
harry's age = 7x
four years from now,
5x +4 / 7x +4 = 3/4
4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
20x +16= 21x +12
20x - 21x = 12 - 16
-x= -4 (minus sign cancelled)
x = 4
Therefore ,
Hari's age = 5(4) = 20 years
Harry's age = 7(4) = 28 years
hope it helps ....
