Question

the ages of rahul and haroom are in the ratio of 5:7. four year later their ages will be 56 years. what are their current ages​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of Rahul and haroom be 5x and 7x respectively

4 years later their ages will become

5x+4 and 7x+4

5x+4+7x+4=56

12x +8=56

12x=48

x=48/12=4

age of Rahul =x*5=4*5=20 years

age of haroom =x*7=4*7=28 years

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

RAHUL : HAROOM

5 : 7

let them each be "x"

so, RAHUL= 5x

HAROOM = 7x

After 4 years, their age will be -

Rahul= 5x+4

Haroom= 7x+4

It is given that their sum of ages is 56... so

5x+4+7x+4=56

12x+8=56

12x=48

x=4

present ages=

rahul= 5*4=20

haroom= 7*4=28
