Let the present ages of Hari and Harry be 5x and 7x respectively.
(Since there are in the ratio of 5:7)
Four years from age of Hari will be = 5x + 4
and Harry's age will be = 7x + 4.
According to question four years from now, the ratio of their ages will be 3:4.
4(5x + 4) = 3(7x + 4)
20x + 16 = 21x + 12
x = 4
