Let the age of Rahul be 5x and age of Haroon be 7x

Given, after 4 years, the sum of their ages will be 56 years.

So, 5x + 4 and 7x + 4



According to the question,

5x + 4 + 7x + 4 = 56

12x + 8 = 56

12x = 56 - 8

12x = 48

x = \frac{48}{12}

x = 4



∴ Age of Rahul = 5x = 5 * 4 = 20 years

∴ Age of Haroon = 7x = 7 * 4 = 28 years
