Answer:
Let their present age be 4a and 5a.
After 8 years, their ages will be (4a+8) and (5a+8)
Ratio would be (4a+8) : (5a+8)
But this ratio is given to be 5:6. Therefore
(4a+8) : (5a+8) = 5:6
solve this (4a+8) / (5a+8) = 5/6
=> 6 x (4a+8) = (5a+8) x 5
=> 24a + 48 = 25a + 40
=> a = 8
So their present age would be
4a = 4x8 = 32
5a = 5x8 = 40
