Answer:


1\:\mathrm{year} (one solution)

Explanation:

Let Ali's and Ahmet's ages be 3 and 4, respectively.

We have:


(3+x)/(4+x)=(4)/(5)

Solving for
x:


5(3+x)=4(4+x),\\15+5x=16+4x,\\x=\boxed{1}

*Since the question only stipulates that Ali and Ahmet have an age ratio of
3:4, there are multiple solutions to this question.
