The forewheel of a carriage makes 6 revolutions more than the rearwheel in going 120 m. If the diameter of the forewheel be increased by `1/4` its present diameter and the diameter of the rearwheel be increased by `1/5` of its present diameter, then the forewheel makes 4 revolutions more than the rearwheel in going the same distance. Find the circumference of each wheel of the carriage.
