Answer:
present age of Hari=20 years.
Present age of Harry=28 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of Hari's and Harry's present ages is 5:7
So, let their ages be 5x and 7x
After 4 years their ages will be in ratio 3:4
Therefore,(5x+4)/(7x+4)=3/4
or, 4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
or, 20x+16=21x+12
or, 16−12=21x−20x
or, 4=1x
or, x=4
Therefore, present age of Hari = 5x=(5×4)=20 years.
Present age of Harry =7x=(7×4)=28 years
The sum of their age is 28+20=48years
HOPE IT HELPS!!!

Answer:
Let the ages be 5x and 7x.
Now,
5x+4/7x+4 =3/4
= 3(5x+4) = 4(7x+4)
= 15x+12 = 28x +16
= 15x-28x = 16-12
= -13x = 4
= x = -4/13
