Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Let the age of Rahul be 5x and age of Haroon be 7x.four years later the sum of their ages will be 56,

The equation for the following will be

(4+5x)+(4+7x)=56

4+4+5x+7x=56 (Using alignment property)

8+12x=56

12x=56-8

12x=48

x=48/12

x=4

Let's check out,

Rahul's age-5x=5X4=20

Haroon's age-7x=7X4=28

Four years later,

(20+4)+(28+4)

24+32=56
