Answer:
The ages of Rahul and Haroon are in the ratio 5:7
Let Rahul’s present age=5x
Haroon present age=7x
Four years later the sum of their ages will be 56 years. So according to the condition,
( 5x + 4 ) + ( 7x + 4 ) = 56
=> 12x + 8 = 56
=> 12x = 56 – 8
=> 12x = 48
=> x = 48/12
=> x = 4
Therefore Rahul’s present age
=> 5 × 4=20years
Haroon’s present age
=> 7 × 4=28years
Hope it helped ✌️ ✌️

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the common ratio be x
Then Rahul age=5x
Haroon age =7x
After four years
Rahul age=5x+4
Haroon age=7x+4
Given:sum of their ages=56 year's
so, according to the question
5x+4+7x+4=56
12x+8=56
12x=56-8
12x=48
x=48upon 12
x=4
5x=5×4=20
7x=7×4=28
Rahul age is 20 years and Haroon age is 28 years
HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU
